Making Another Start. It's Your Money They're Stealing

The title of the previous post, "Who's in Charge of the Clattering Train ?" was a remark made by either Harold Wilson or Jim Callaghan.

But think about those days from 1945 and Clement Atlee. With Milton Keynes, or was it Maynard,they went to america and borrowed £4 billion to pay for Nationalisation. Now look where we are. At that time,'47, the "focus groups" were, for the most part Unions. But there was one or two groups who worshipped some Marxist Ideology and quite a few still worship the failed, Socialist creed .

But as far as I can make out, whatever their latest "cunning plan", it is always you the poor bloody Taxpayer who foots the bill. As Queen Victoria is supposed to have said, "We don't want too much of this democracy". Having a look back to a time when only the rich and powerful had a say, it was the rich and powerful who paid for the Army and the Navy. And MPs were never paid, they did the job because they wanted to. Not for money.

No, it wasn't perfect, but then again, is today perfect ? Now you have "elected" Politicians strutting their stuff, going round Demanding you pay Taxation so that they can bribe more voters to vote for them. They are buying their position with your Taxpayers Money.

***************************************************************

In between Queen Victoria's day and Tony Blair's reign, there must surely be a place of equal balance, where the privileges, although different, carry the corresponding merit and status.

And that balance is achieved when the centre decides the level of Taxation and has the power to say "no" to any mindless and useless spending of Taxpayers money. Like off-shore "wind turbines" for generating electricity. Mark my words, a total waste of Taxpayers money as well as a hazard to shipping and fish and the birds in the vicinity of the monstrous useless ugly things. But then, so much of Westminster and Whitehall is nothing more than a den of thieves for the most part.

Well you know my opinion about Direct Taxation by now, I want to see the Taxpayers in control of Taxation. If you look at my profile, you will see that my date of birth is 1935. I have no agenda, just about all the items in the schedule of my lifetime have been attended to, as far as I know. Apart from the final planting, there isn't much to do in my final days. This should keep me busy.

After that, I think I should wish all of you a, Very Merry Christmas, I might otherwise tempt providence when I need guidance. Regards To One And All, ATF. TheTaxAxe.
