The Budget

 
It's that time of year when the corrupt officials that are badly running our country make their annual announcement as to how they are going to redistribute the nation's wealth over the coming year. Obviously, this involves lining the pockets of the rich with the meagre pickings taken from the poor.

Chancellor George Osborne kept with tradition and posed for the customary photograph, holding up a red briefcase containing his Budget speech. This is an important tradition portraying a historic precedent. It's a symbolic statement. It says I've crapped in a bag, and you're all going to eat it!

  1. We were robbed again. It doesn't matter which party are in power, they all bend us over and shaft us.

  3. You think that you have problems. Many Italians voted for a clown.

  5. I don't just feel like I've been robbed. It feels like I've been raped and pillaged as well.

  6. Twice I've been made redundent. I have also previously lost my house under the tory scum. I now live in meagre rented accommodation with a meagre state pension to look forward to despite working almost my entire adult life. No words can sum up my loathing for these people.

  7. Has anybody else noticed the obvious smoke screen. One pence off a pint of beer. That won't exactly right all the other wrongs.

  8. Our government runs on bribery and corruption. It looks like yours does too. It comes as no surprise that I feel so at home whenever I visit the UK.

  9. I suppose I'm lucky really as my family are fairly wealthy, but I truly feel for those less fortunate. I admire the way some people can just get on with life and make the most of their situation, despite the fact that the government continues to screw them over.

    When you've finally had enough and decide to rise up and slay your oppressors, please don't tar me with the same brush, just because I'm wealthy.

  10. We have to spend so much money on defence. It is such a shame. So much good could be made with that money.

  11. What will be the next covert tax they try to spring upon us. They've tried pie tax. They are taxing sports nutrition. I wouldn't be surprised if they try condom tax.
