And the Brits will bend over and spread their cheeks for this without so much as a whimper.

Cool! Everybody would get an allowance!

Totally bizarre. Do the tax collectors imagine that computers running on Intel chips come up with different answers depending on who owns them?
I say it's time to take their betel nuts away and make 'em go cold turkey!

If that doesn't cause a revolt in the British Isles, nothing will.
I can't wait for this to be proposed by the Dems.

Their government has been B* slapping these poor people ever since they disarmed them.

Is that really worse than Obamacare’s taking payments directly out of citizens’ checking accounts? (Answer: both are outrageous.)

I think this is funny at many levels. What are they going to do with the Sharia business that operates under its own jurisdiction?
To: kosciusko51
Yeah, and the next proposal will be to use the funds transfer to further liberal social engineering goals.

Do the Brits have the equivalent of the W-4 in the US where the employee can claim a large number of exemptions without needing to offer any proof? That's about the only way in the US for an employee of a company to do anything about their withholding.

What in the world has UK come to (and this under a “conservative” government)!
UK desperately needs it’s own “tea party” movement (en mass) not just a few activists here and there..or they are doomed!

I think they have one, actually, but it’s in it’s infancy, and it may not take hold like ours.

Another proof of who really runs the government. Not the politicians, but the bureaucrats. Make a point of seeing the two British TV comedy series "Yes Minister' and "Yes Prime Minister." Maggie Thatcher loved them!

what a great idea! in fact, instead of sending money to people, the government could just hand out food and gasoline! it would be a utopia!!

It’s communism in everything but the name. Don’t think for one second that American democrats wouldn’t do this in a heartbeat if they thought they could get away with it.

I wonder how long it’ll take for someone in Zero’s administration to come out and say something like “Great Britain, you chose well”.
