Rupert_Baehr Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 I knew all that. Thank you for your expected comments terry. It still does not alter the fact that my statements and diagnoses are correct. You haven't 'diagnosed' anything. You performed a SWAG analysis, jumped to a conclusion and suggested a 'course of action' (without even thinking about how you might implement it.) You couldn't even be bothered to suggest how your 'solution' would solve the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anywebsite Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Do you have any idea who the richest people in the UK are? (I'll make it easy for you: Here are the 'top 10'. The Queen, Cameron and his croney bankers aren't on the list, btw ) 1 Lakshmi Mittal and family.............£17,514m.........................Steel 2 Alisher Usmanov.........................£12,400m........................Steel 3 Roman Abramovich.................... £10,300m..........................Oil, Industry 4 Duke of Westminster..................£7,000m...........................Property 5 Ernesto & Kirsty Bertarelli............£6,870m .......................... Pharmaceuticals 6 Leonard Blavatnik......................£6,237m...........................Industry 7 John Fredriksen and family..........£6,200m............................Shipping 8 David and Simon Reuben..............£6,176m...........................Property, Internet 9= ...Gopi and Sri Hinduja...............£6,000m...........................Industry, Finance 9= Galen & George Weston & family.£6,000m.............................Retailing 11Charlene and Michel de Carvalho... £5,400m...........................Inheritance, Brewing, Banking Not a lot of 'old inherited money' there , is there? I wouldn't be too surprised to find that, in many cases, the wealth isn't physically in the UK, anyway. How are you going to take it away from them? If you want to change 'the establishment' why don't you join it - get yourself elected as an MP for a start - and change it from the inside? "When the revolution happens" might roll off the tongue fairly easily, but revolutions take a lot of organising and a great deal of hard work. They don't just 'happen' and it's probably far easier to effect change from within. You forgot the Crown Estate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert_Baehr Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 No I didn't. The Crown Estate isn't a person. It is the property of the Crown but it is not the private property of the reigning monarch. It is run by the Crown Estate Commissioners (nothing to do with the Monarch) It is accountable to Parliament and the profits it makes go to the treasury. Sounds a bit like a Nationalised Industry - apart from the fact that it operates at a profit, rather than at a loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alchresearch Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 and the condems have got us out of it then At least they're trying. And started from day one. If Labour had won the election they'd have carried on spending and we'd be in a worse financial situation than we are now. Remember when the Tories stopped the schools BSF programme in 2010? Labour and local councils were crying that schools would literally fall down. Over two years on and I don't see any news reports of collapsed schools. All I see are huge rises in heating and cooling and repair bills for the new schools. I was instrumental in stopping a school giving ipads to every teacher and student and I'm proud in doing so. There was absolutely no evidence they enhanced teaching and learning, and the same thing could have been done with cheaper tablets or netbooks. Many schools can be maintained and refurbed rather than knocked down and rebuilt. But new buildings and flashy toys mask poor performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
