talking about road tax, my fella went to get his 6 month tax the other week, he took his forms, and got his £99 ready when they said it was actually £101.75(or summat similar)
IMO if the form says £99.00 then it should be what it says:(
anyone else noticed this?

this is exactly what the govenment want , they basicly want us sat at home twiddleing our thumbs only venturing out to work so we can pay tax, they have made it almost impossible for pubs to run at a proffit and made beer too expensive, they banned smoking which has also hit the pub industry hard and tax the hell out of fuel so we cant afford to go out in our cars too much and just incase we can afford peterol etc they hit us with high road tax

basicly the govenment wants us sat at home with our cheap supermarket beer smoking our fags at home and saving up for a week to afford fuel to go shopping in our cars

cant see the tories been any better either coz they always liked to screw the working class as well and the lib dems would ban cars all together and have us getting around on tandems

like somone said earlier - RIPP OFF BRITAIN

just wait until the next new tax comes along because the bbc are pushing for us all to have an extra licence for the internet as well as a tv licence
