The budget

Oh bloody hell, I've just realised I'm living in a hovel.
But I try to be half decent at least.

I cant say I was doing well before the recession, and at the moment I'm still not flourishing.
It appears to me that for the working bloke there is no such thing as "the good times", we just get by whoever runs this country.

 

There are plenty of houses around here for under 200,000 so first time buyers are supposed to be able to afford them now with stamp duty removed.:skp: Some two bed properties can be bought for £160.000 BUT banks and Building Societies want £20,000+ deposit. How the hell can people save that while living in rented properties or even at home???

 

No! because of the recession they are doing less, so their pay should be cut.

Have you ever thought of the billions going out of this country to Microsoft and its "partners". Maybe if there was a big shift to Linux systems it would help the National economy. I worked all my life for my pensions, which is enough to exist on, I see no point in subscribing to Bill Gates pension fund to keep him in luxury.
