F**k the government!
Turbo Mini Forums

**copy and pasted from another forum**


To everyone you know that owns a car, or has owned a car, or is thinking of owning one in the future.

After paying:

Road Fund Licence (Tax...for having a car)
Fuel Duty (Tax....for using fuel in your car)
Parking fines (Tax because councils don't provide enough parking)
Fixed Penalty notices (Tax for getting caught, momentarily exceeding the
speed limit)

The Government are now taking the "P" if they think we are going to take "Mileage Tax" lying down!! Join us in trying to stop the "Prince of Darkness (AKA - Gordon Brown) squeezing more out of your wallets!! I don't know about you, but I could not do my job if I had to rely on Public Transport...it would be physically impossible.

So if you want to do something about it sign up, and have your voice heard! The government's proposal to introduce road pricing will mean you having to purchase a tracking device for your car and paying a monthly bill to use it.

The tracking device will cost about £200 and in a recent study by the BBC,the lowest monthly bill was £28 for a rural florist and £194 for a delivery driver.
A non working Mum who used the car to take the kids to school paid £86 in one month.

On top of this massive increase in tax, you will be tracked. Somebody will know where you are at all times. They will also know how fast you have been going, so even if you accidentally creep over a speed limit you can expect a fine and 3 points with your monthly bill.

If you care about our freedoms and stopping the constant bashing of the car driver, please sign the petition on No 10's new website http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/traveltax/

God you lot are a bunch of moaning bastards. If you care that much why don't you get into politics properly and solve all our problems, because it is obviously easy. But no, everybody takes the easy option of moaning in pubs and forums and signing usless waste of web space petitions.

Some people are brave enougn to move to another country where the grass is luch and the homeless smell of roses. I bet they all keep their national insurance payments up though........

Am I the only person on this forum to like the UK, or maybe the only person who likes to talk about it.

I don't want an argument. Just my opinion and in the interest of balance.

A man without a project is like a like a woman without a shopping list.

I like this country.It used to be better.
Its not the country thats wrong .its the greedy bastards that live in it at the top and bottom.
Its money.
Every ones wants to be better or best or richer , quick get rich schemes so no one trusts anyone ,cause theres always another reason for someone doing something.
The goverment has let our industry decline.We don`t seem to make anything any more .They make sure they are ok , and we just take it lying down.

So no we should sign petitions and shout more to let them know we are not happy.
I`ve signed !

Ben H in the interest of balance and a fair argument, your right and wrong.You must stand up at some point .
My opinion , no offence meant.

I know , i know im sorry , it just makes me grin !!!
