How would you run the budget?

If you were given charge of the budget, where would you spend the nation's wealth? Maybe you want to see more investment in the NHS? Perhaps you want to help immigrants integrate more effectively through language lessons? Maybe you think that cars should be replaced with more efficient transport systems? Perhaps you'd like smokers and drinkers to be hit harder by taxes?

    WELL SAID!! my fear is whom WILL BE willing to take this all on, AND MAKE THE CHANGES THAT IS SO NEEDED. The MP'S today are only out for them self's, And if there were some one strong enough to take and make the changes so needed, They would be stopped in there track's, So to all us working class, We are all doomed!!!!

    Put Sir Richard Branson in charge of the economy, He knows how to kick start is back on the straight nad narrow, not. If you want a good package deal you get phone, tv with over 145 channels and 20 gig broadband all for 38 quid for the first 6 months then 45 quid thereafter, thats if your a new customer like. It will cost you 66 quid per month if youre an existing customer up grading. The only reason he went for northern rock was to make the british tax payer pay more, he planned on shutting all the branches over here and reopening them in asia near his call centres so they can deposit there 20p an hour wages, don't worry though as existing customers of northern rock you do get discounted flights to asia on virgin airlines so you can withdraw your cash. Has anybody noticed the number of spyware getting through Virgins Pc guard? this is because the spyware programme was free once but now you have to upgrade to package L at 66 quid a month. You only get the firewall and antivirus free now and thats only so you cant bugger up virgins elite internet packge. So to all of you that think your protected try reloading your set up cd from virgin and get a nice little xmas present form them.So with all the money they make from us and the money they'll make from the cheap labour and antispyware programmes youll need to fix your computers. I should think Good OLd Peoples Man Sir Richard will definately get us back from the recession. Three cheers to Sir Ricky.
