Thank goodness for that.

I’ve got things to do.

Don’t believe in vouchers as they restrict what you can buy, and lead to black markets so that parents can buy essentials other than food for their families.

I do however believe in work for everyone.

If you claim a benefit and are physically fit, you should have to do some kind of work. Not as a punishment but for all sorts of positive reasons…[Read more]

Thanks for the correction Wordy.

Can’t see how the woman in this case bears no moral responsibility.

If you are in a pub and you wind someone up so much that they thump you, most people would say that the person who hit you shouldn’t have used violence. But they will say that you brought it on yourself. In other words they will have some sympathy for him and less sympathy for…[Read more]

Drink to forget. Oh bugger that didn’t work.

Maybe we also need to change our attitude towards tax. Part of the resentment towards taxation comes from the partly-justified idea that rulers take tax from the rules to spend on golden castles, pomp and ego-enhancing standing armies.

Our modern welfare state delivers so much more yet we feel hard done by. I read somewhere…

I think there was something dodgy about the whole thing.

You back up your data and your system at least every 24 hours, more frequently I would have thought if you were a bank.

How did they end up more than 24 hours behind, unless someone had deliberately corrupted something more than 24 hours previously, which suggests malice, either criminal…[Read more]

Now the dust has settled, I think England had a good tournament.

Qualified top of their group, with three solid performances in the most cut throat competition in the world.

Holding Italy was a achievement even, although they were outclassed.

Not bad from a team in transition. Not bad from a team that everyone thought was so poor they wouldn’t…[Read more]

Egypt’s system of law is already blended with sharia. In practice, many issues regarded in the West as central to sharia law in reality relate to local cultures. The wearing of the hijab for example is recognized as being largely cultural, as the Qur’an evidently requires male and female modesty, as opposed to a specific female garment.

If you can’t say something nice, and decide to say it anyway, at least don’t moan about the consequences

BTW I have no particular sympathy for those who avoid tax. If you earn the money you can afford to pay.

At the same time, there will always be loopholes. I expect people to use them. I also expect politicians to keep closing them.

Think of it this way, if you win a game by sticking to the rules, you are a worthy winner. If you do things that…[Read more]

Cameron is a millionaire surrounded by other millionaires. Bet they are all taking advantage of tax laws to pay as little as possible – as would most people. If the loopholes exist to “avoid” tax then it ain’t illegal. Simples. Since his entourage cannot be squeaky clean in terms of tax avoidance, he is heading for a comedown real fast.
