Why should we save money when hundreds of billions worth of tax are being evaded each year from the UK government, the NHS reforms will cost money and we have a failed economic and social systems. It is about time we ended the era of the rich "never having it so good"!!!
We need to create real decent jobs, not work work schemes and welfare reforms!!!

No, I did not, you (and your friends) should be consigned to the history book becasue you defend a social and economic system that is not working and is outdated!!!
In other words:
THE WORLD IS NOT WORKING!!!

Re: Pay frozen for third year running
Alan I don't think that being fixated on Tax issues will solve the worlds issues.
All that's happening is that you are sounding like a broken record.
I'm in no doubt that part of solving the country's problems would be helped by this but then there are other things that can be done too.

It is not just tax issues, it is union rights, law and order, wages, benifits, LGBT rights and labour standards, along with a radical change in the way businesses is run!

In the meantime, our costs go up, we are undercut by China, Vietnam, Thailand and any number of other countries that can provide cheap labour, and the country ultimately goes the same way as Greece.

You're forgetting, Alan's great plan involves forcing (by "SANCTIONS!!!") the likes of China et al to pay the same wages as Western countries.

Yes, but there will be a global government to global labour, wage, and benefit standards!

How do you propose to establish this "global government" with standardised wages and benefits?.Do you wish to remove countries own sovereignty and if so how? without having all out war on a global scale
