Jon the Hat Posted 3 December 2008 Posted 3 December 2008 There is no scientific basis for "lie dectectors" in their current format. There is no evidence that taxing someone £500 and giving back £400 makes them better off either but that didn't stop Gordon.
Webbo Posted 3 December 2008 Posted 3 December 2008 While a lot of policies are not all that different I hope to see a general shift in the way things are done. For example, Labour think the way to give people on low incomes support is to create a bureaucratic Tax credit system which is very expensive to run, and makes people reliant on state funding. As we have seen this is fine until they bugger it up and ask for it back. It generally encourages people to be "gratefull" to the state for their support. A tory approach to the same problem would be more along the lines of taking less tax from low earners in the first place, thus removing the completely pointless costs asscoaited with taking it and giving it back. People then feel more in control and reliant only on themselves.It is going to be diffcult to cut taxes, but I do expect to see a reversal of the continuous shift towards govt intereference in everything this bunch of idiots have presided over. Cancel ID cards. Slim down the government. Cap council tax (as far as possible). The fact of the matter is you could save a fortune if you have to balls to do it. 1.8Million of the jobs "created" under labour are either in or realint on the state. I hope to see a move back towards individual responsibility, for yourself and your community. Labour's tendancy to make everything within their remit just lets everyone off the hook. Agree with every word of that.
Nationwider Posted 3 December 2008 Posted 3 December 2008 Agree with every word of that. As do I. The tax system is a ludicrous beaurocratic behemoth. It desperately needs simplifying, if only for the fact that it wastes incredible amounts of money just managing it.
Corky Posted 3 December 2008 Posted 3 December 2008 The most pressing issue here is what the word "Ultime" means. Anyone know?

Another who should post more!
Nationwider Posted 4 December 2008 Posted 4 December 2008 The most pressing issue here is what the word "Ultime" means.Anyone know? It's like Hammer Time, but for people that live in Hull. Suggested usage: "Stop! 'Ultime!" I don't know what that means though.
