House of...who?
The House of Commons. Isn't that
supposed to imply anyone can get in there? Isn't it more like The
House of the Privileged Few?
The top monkey in the House of the
Runaway Gravy Train rides out with his local hunt. There's an
everyman pursuit. Cricket whites? Rugby boots? Not on your nelly. I'm
a man of the people. Just an ordinary Joe. Hasn't everyone got access
to a few thousand quid's worth of horse and a stupid red coat and top
hat.
The unspeakable chasing the uneatable,
Oscar Wilde called them. I've promised no swearing, so I can't say
what I call them.
The PM's hunt is the first prosecuted
by the RSPCA. The PM's hunt has broken the law. Law is what the House
of Expenses Fiddlers is supposed to specialise in. The Heythrop Hunt
was described as 'believing that they were above the law – they
were wrong'.
So, head honcho at the House of the
Self-Righteous Who Tell Us Plebs How to Live Our Lives, belongs to a
hunt that believes it's above the law. Symptomatic of the prevalent
attitudes in government. Maybe this sort of thing explains the low
turn outs at polling (from the Latin polluxus, to totally waste one's
time) stations.
Oy! HMRC! Where's my interest?
Got a tax return? Did you get interest?
Bet you didn't. Do you know why? You're not already mega-wealthy and
one of the ruling elite. One rule for the rich? You bet'cha.
The Barclay brothers own the Telegraph
and the Ritz. How much tax do you think the Ritz has paid in the last
seventeen years?
None. Nada. Zip. Ziltch.
These guys got a £204m tax rebate, and
£268m in interest.
That's not enough, apparently. They're
after £1bn in interest.
No wonder the petty, small-minded ejits
at HMRC are busy chasing normal
folk. They need to subsidise the lifestyles and huge demands of guys
like the Barclay brothers.

Dear ARSEne (heh),
Just saw the results from Saturday.
Well, Mrs Ivan pointed this one out to me. Her finger's more on the
football pulse than mine. As you know, I'm more Formula 1 myself. The
(un)mighty Bradford (that lot that dumped us out of that cup you
thought we might win?) drew. Two-all (see? I'm learning the “lingo”),
with the equally mighty(NOT) Southend. The great unwashed (the fans)
will read the sports pages (and nothing else) and will be giving us
more of the “not good enough” on twitter etc. Sort it out before
they start questioning our (immense, heh!) wages.
Kind regards,
Ivan
