The Budget
- Thread starter Mick
- Start date
Mick I think the general apathy to this event is because it is just too little too late.
If the Escalator tax on beer had been dropped when the party first came to power, then maybe there might be a few more pubs trading.
A lot of what is proposed is not going to come in for another year....and some of the things promised...like the boost in money for child-care, may not happen. It will depend on the re-election to power of this woeful government...it is a push me pull you animal....you'd think that the two coalition parties could drop their own agenda's for the good of the country....but no. It isn't the country that matters to them...it is their own hubristic political ambitions that drive them.
I'm off now to take the anti cynicism pills.

Politicians might not be fully human - hence have no empathy.

I must admit that I take little interest in the Budget . But that bit about the beer caught my eye .
After what the politicians have been saying about beer prices has anyone any idea why beer has been reduced in price , however so little ?

This is because it affects them not one little bit.
You can bet your life if it did affect them, they would have been more action and much less talking.
Just remember all this when they come knocking on your door wanting your vote...it's not so long off........all three main parties are a shower of Fisons.
When I first started out in politics back in the early 60s, people respected Councillor's and their MP, mind you in those days councillors did the job because they wanted to do it and were not paid, payment started when reorganisation came in in around 73 I think. As for MPs well does anybody have any respect for MPs of any persuasion, very little, that's why the turnout at the last GE wasn't much over 60%, and I think you might find its even worse next time around
