The Conservative government has boasted it will move 9 Million of the poorest Britons out of poverty within three months with one of its most progressive, innovative and radical fiscal plans to date!
It was revealed by government sources today, that by globalisation of poverty calculations, or averaging the differential between the UN’s definition of poverty in the third world (about £1.50 pd), and the first world’s (+-£12.00 pd) – the median (or real) poverty level would be readjusted to around £6.75 per day, thereby moving 9 million Britons safely out of poverty. The source also suggested there are plans to now cut minimum wages by about 50% (first hinted at by the coalitons green paper four months ago), cut all benefits by between 30 and 45% since the private sector will now be sufficiently encouraged to take on new workers (6 million jobs will be created by mid 2012 a inside source claimed)
A spokesman for the coalition suggested that since so many people would be lifted out of poverty simultaneously there would now be a real justification and indeed a impetus, to cut the 50p top rate down to around 35p and cancel the proposed bankers tax this year…”it appears people never knew how good they had it in this country!” suggested a conservative insider close to the chancellor.
In what way Labour is left?! While you can wish for the Labour to turn left, current and recent Labour leaders / policies are so far from left ideologies, that you can hardly see any hint of left in their works and talk….
Forget about relating to Marxist/Leninist/Communist ideologies, Labour don’t even support the desperate cries from Trade Unions for their existence support.
What a pathetic fall Labour had, and what sort of leaders it is rearing these days! Current one appears not to know the basics of public speaking and trade union histories. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-13971770). Previous one called his own party-supporter a bigot (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8649012.stm) for her burning questions. The one prior to him took this country to war against Iraq on now-infamous false accusations of “Weapons of Mass Destruction (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8409526.stm). These days, he charges by minute for his words (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1167682/Blair-worlds-best-paid-speaker-pocketing-364-000-just-hours-work.html ). Do you honestly believe these leaders could bring in Socialism to……. http://wp.me/p1FXBz-4R
