| State of the Nation I'am very sorry if this post ruffles some feathers or whatever but this is becoming a disgrace.
I'am appauled at the chancellors budget. Why oh why does the government continue this CO2 sharade?
As a Structural and Civil Engineer who has researched into this field I can tell you this - the planet has had higher levels of CO2 than it has now FACT! Human kind has acted as a catalyst to global warming FACT! We did not cause global warming FACT! We cannot stop global warming as it is a natural occurance FACT!
Why in the sweet baby Jesus should I have to pay extra "green" taxes for something that will happen anyway? Why am I paying £1.07 for a litre of petrol?
Heres something you may not know - petroleum if at the pump only had VAT on it would cost in the region of £0.40 a litre.
Why do I pay almost 30% of my wage (income tax and national insurance) then 17.5% VAT on EVERYTHING I buy then Council Tax for a totally inadequate service.
NHS = Long waiting lists,
Police = Dont come round when you report something or take several hours. I personally have tried to get police round to remove neds/chavs/thugs from my street as they were vandalising property, the police told me they would come round - they never did.
This country is a complete and utter shambles! What is there for me to be proud about? Nothing is the answer. It is for that reason that I will be departing this country as soon as humanly possible.
Its time the government need to get off this carbon bandwagon and start spending our money in the necessary places, ie not the London Olympics, Oil wars, MP's second houses and fancy toilet seats made out of the Ivory of Mammoths. (last one was a joke) |
