I just need to check I've got this right...
Inflation is running (officially) at 4% (but in real terms is much much more)
Crime is increasing exponentially
Brown is blaming high fuel prices on 'Global pressure' when he takes about 70p a litre in tax on unleaded fuel, about 80p a litre on diesel
Businesses are going to the wall as a result of the above
Internationally we have a dictator in Zimbabwe but we won't do anything more than write a stern letter to stop it (his country doesn't have oil you see)
Public sector pay is a joke
Multinational companies are, frankly, taking the piss out of our lax tax systems
And the government decides that the most important thing right now is to bring in nonsensical crap like this. Its just as well I used my vote wisely and didn't vote for Brown and his cronies....oh....wait....none of us did....
And one more thing - she's brought this in to balance the workplace. If I'm not mistaken, the country is imbalanced - white males/females have the majority in terms of population - has anybody in Whitehall considered the fact that workplaces are imbalanced because of this??? Or that maybe that women or ethnic minorities simply didn't apply for jobs because they didn't want that particular job?
