Does anyone else think there is a strong possibility of this. People really have been pushed to the limit, and then you see the obscene way MP`s are looking after themselves, and Darling telling everyone they must accept below inflation wage increases. Not to mention the other idiotic MP who asks why people are so grumpy!

there should be more strikes by us all, at the end of the day these clowns need to realise we have the power not them!!! this country needs to come to a halt, imagine how it would affect the economy, if we all sat at home for one week and didnt go to work or anything!!! THEY WOULD BE SCREWED!

these MP's etc get everything paid for, so they dont give a damn if the price of everything is going up!!

Its almost as if the Government is deliberately trying to wind us up. Like these news stories from the last 24 hours:

Low income families given financial rewards for healthy eating or sending their kids to school.

Smokers given £50 per month to quit.

Low income workers given a 20% discount for the Manchester congestion charge.

Why are people who work hard to get a degree or good paid job penalised? How is it going to motivate people to better themselves if the Government throws money at them?

The charge is only Monday-Friday at peak times. Even if you went over Friday afternoon you'd only pay to get out of Manchester, not for going in.

Damn right!!

In fact why don't we make it a whole month.

And whilst we're at it, we can burn every government and official building to the ground. Local authorities, hospitals, schools, dole offices, everything.

That'd show THEM.

They wouldn't take the mick out of US then would they. As we all sat round starving
