Harmless, eh?


Imagine if UKIP suggested half these policies. Oh the outcry.

The Greens will save the planet then let us all get blown to bits by terrorists.

Be careful, if you let those eyes swivel around too much you won't be able to reach the curtains to give them a good twitch.

I'm dubious of your prophetic vision of a terrorist attack wiping out 100% of humanity. So, with that in mind, I would place not letting the planet die as frightfully important.

Whatless unrealistic flower power utopian bollicks, that whilst may seem to have positive sentiment at it's heart, is utterly unworkable, and more to the point totally unfinaceable. Unless of course all you workers out there are happy to pay most of your hard earned in TAX to feed to the workshy.

IMO there is no difference between the trustafarians and the monster raving looney party.

I must have missed that bit in the manifesto....


You didn't miss it, because it wasn't there. You see what I did was use my brain, and I kind've worked out that the spend of 280 billion, is going to have to come from somewhere, so lets put our thinking caps on a minute shall we, and have a little think about this hmmmmm.,how do Governments (since the days of Robin hood and beyond), raise funds ? Grow money trees ? Nope. Go to the end of rainbows to find the pots of gold ? Nope. Buy 20 lucky dips a week ? Nope. God this is a toughey...... No wait a minute, you know, by Jove I think I've got it.

THEY RAISE TAX'S that you and I have no choice about paying.

(unless your a fcukin thick one eyed porridge womble, then you can raise it by selling the nations gold reserves to Webuyanygold.com).

You failed to notice my sarcasm. That's fine, but forgive me if i don't take your maths at face value as i suspect it is wrong. You also failed to give any indication where your 'workshy' comment hails from, but i can see that you and logic are not good friends.....


From the article, taken itself from the middle class hippies manifesto.

THE CITIZENS’ INCOME

The flagship policy is an unconditional, non-withdrawable income of £71 a week for everyone living in Britain “as a right of citizenship”, regardless of wealth or whether they are seeking work.

Benefits and the tax-free personal allowance will be abolished, and top-ups given for people with children or disabilities, or to pay rent and mortgages. No-one will see a reduction in benefits, and most will see a substantial increase. Parents will be entitled to two years’ paid leave from work.

The policy will enable people to “choose their own types and patterns of work”, and will allow people to take up “personally satisfying and socially useful work”.

It will cost somewhere between £240-280 billion a year – more than double the current health budget, and ten times the defence budget. Those costs will be off-set by some reduction to the welfare bill, through the replacement of jobseekers’ allowance.

It would seem you and reading before you post are not good friends.

I'm sure there must be a course for people that cannot detect sarcasm, even possibly an NHS operation to provide them with a prosthetic one. Still failing to indicate where, apart from your inherent prejudice, you grabbed the workshy comment from and still not justifying your maths. The greens must be terrified of you.....

THEY RAISE TAX'S that you and I have no choice about paying.

(unless your a fcukin thick one eyed porridge womble, then you can raise it by selling the nations gold reserves to Webuyanygold.com).

You failed to notice my sarcasm. That's fine, but forgive me if i don't take your maths at face value as i suspect it is wrong. You also failed to give any indication where your 'workshy' comment hails from, but i can see that you and logic are not good friends.....


From the article, taken itself from the middle class hippies manifesto.

THE CITIZENS’ INCOME

The flagship policy is an unconditional, non-withdrawable income of £71 a week for everyone living in Britain “as a right of citizenship”, regardless of wealth or whether they are seeking work.

Benefits and the tax-free personal allowance will be abolished, and top-ups given for people with children or disabilities, or to pay rent and mortgages. No-one will see a reduction in benefits, and most will see a substantial increase. Parents will be entitled to two years’ paid leave from work.

The policy will enable people to “choose their own types and patterns of work”, and will allow people to take up “personally satisfying and socially useful work”.

It will cost somewhere between £240-280 billion a year – more than double the current health budget, and ten times the defence budget. Those costs will be off-set by some reduction to the welfare bill, through the replacement of jobseekers’ allowance.

It would seem you and reading before you post are not good friends.

I'm sure there must be a course for people that cannot detect sarcasm, even possibly an NHS operation to provide them with a prosthetic one. Still failing to indicate where, apart from your inherent prejudice, you grabbed the workshy comment from and still not justifying your maths. The greens must be terrified of you.....



waffle waffle waffle blah blah blah, you are the message board equivalent of white noise.

Ahh, a good defence when all else fails. I salute your courage....


Your boring me now, this is all to easy, where's Gusset when you need him.

Exactly right, you act like you don't care. Good for you, keep your chin up.



Past your bedtime?
