Well, I for one always seriously consider what mags has to say then, thank Britcliffe for the free but large bag of salt it can be taken with, at a pinch.

Re: would you support protest?
You have a point, Mancie, hence the lower end of the income bracket being penalised just for being poor. What this so called government need to do is stop handing out our income taxes to foreigners of every ilk who seem to look upon the UK as some sort of milch cow. I still firmly believe that we should kick Europe into touch, but our cowardly subservience to the status-quo makes it a virtual impossibility.
I haven't voted in any election for the last decade, but give us a referendum on membership of the European Union and I will be first past the post.

Re: would you support protest?
The measure of weight given to any protest in England now usually involves the number of hits that a Facebook campaign gets.
We can't even organise a peaceful sit-in at Peel Street toilets due to a locked door.

That is the point I'm making.. can you imagine Cameron going on record telling the French government they must listen to the people everytime they demonstrate on the streets?..yet he has the arrogance to tell the government of Eygpt and others they should back down because thousands of "the people" protest.

All successive British governments have only backed revolutions, as long as they think there'll be something in it for them.
They were still supporting Mubarak until it was clear he'd lost. Then it was jolly well done you protesters.
Brtitish governments have supported Egypt for years, despite it being a police state, with one of the worst human rights records on the planet.

OK .. they are all the same.. but Cameron is our prime minister and the man on the world stage.. even I don't take much notice of what labour say... so I doubt north africa and the middle east are interested.
