“"The rich" already make a net contribution to the treasury, "the poor" don't. As to "war", that is a truly tiny proportion of the budget compared the welfare, even after IDS cut it.” Ah, I am always happy to see that some still believe in this fairy tale…

The Rich evade taxes thanks to laws tailored for them by their cousins, friend, relatives and families in power.
The “poor” pays more taxes (as VIT) in proportion on what they earn.

And the poor provide more soldiers than the Rich. Why always thinking money and not “Honneur et Patrie”?

And in the UK only Ireland could compare about the lowest taxes for the banksters and affiliates.
And this Chancellor will even cut their taxes even lower.

War is surely a tiny proportion of the budget. But if your compare defence and Welfare…
Then if your ideal for your Grandparents is for them to work in a Mc Donald… My idea for mine is/was for them to enjoy as much as possible the years to come…
But hey, perhaps to sweep between two shifts in a factory is your idea of a good life for 70 years old…

All theses amounts are nothing compared to the Tax Evasion that ALL governments in UK failed to address.

Perhaps this march is the start of a Tunisian Revolution in this country by people sick of the MP expenses scandals, greedy Banksters with indecent bonuses earned on frauds, sick of these Governments strong with the weak but weak with the strong, fed-up of the cuts against every body except them and their pals in the City.
