martyn668 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Anyone hear the Now Show on Radio 4 the other day (you can "Listen again" at www.bbc.co.uk/radio4. Funny joke about the fact that the government calculated the costs of the London Olympics without adding the VAT. The whole thing was railroaded through by the BBC and the London Standard, damning anyone who was against the games as unpatriotic, thus protecting 6 years of news stories afterwards about incompentent planning and spiralling costs. Punchline - "It'll take a lot of 4x4's drving into the congestion zone area to pay for that lot... Drive a Range Rover into Central London for Britain." Now we see what Red Ken's plans are. London is bankrupt, and he is stealing money to pay for his incompetence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Now we see what Red Ken's plans are. London is bankrupt, and he is stealing money to pay for his incompetence. i think you'll find that applies to most/all levels of goverment in this country. doesnt matter how much they steal/raise they waste it on ****e rather than anything useful.

rtbarton Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 It's frightening - £200 fine for putting a bit of paper in your bottle bin (what about labels then?) and every other little chance to bleed people white and services are crumbling round our ears. It can't all be going on Blairs overseas crusades to rule the world, so where is it going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope "The Yak" doesn't read this thread, after our conversation last Sunday he'll be on the keyboard for hours joining in the fun. I've just locked my orange crate in the safe so I don't get started on the way this country is being destroyed... Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
