lesterman Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 We are in the depths of recession and everyone is being asked to tighten their belts and make sacrifices. Everyone of upper middle class and less that is. The lesson that this government should learn is that they need to be seen to be fair. They need to make upper class people suffer too , then the lower classes could accept it better. How about scrapping the royal family and house of lords for a start and confiscating their assets? How about arresting the bankers who caused the problems for treason and confiscating their wealth too? Being seen to be fair is the way forwards for any government now.

Not sure what good scrapping the royal family would do, but the Bankers should definately be brought to book and be seen to have been punished for what they have done. Can't somehow see their friends and financiers, the Conservatives bringing this about any time soon though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is being seen to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Vader Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 This government does not want to be seen as being fair. They have made that abundantly clear. They even block the call for a tax on banking..... http://www.avaaz.org/en/tax_banks_now_uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
