Money's worths

NEW - As all this is a done deal with our money and no reference to anyone (Alistair Darling says it was all OK'd a few months ago, so that's alright then) I think this Gaurdian masthead sums it up.

Dear Messrs Prudence and Onwiththejob,

To cut out what seems to already be way too many highly paid and/or pensioned middle persons, I am leaving my wallet and what's left in it out on my currently debt/mortgage free home doorstep for any institution and individual - who you evidently hope will help you stay in power - to lift whatever they fancy from, to keep them in a manner to which you have let them become accustomed in over 10 years of 'oversight'.

Rgds, JM

ps: Not so sure on the income tax demand

Indy - Taxpayers run risk of a £1 trillion burden - Nice round number. Not.

Telegraph - Bradford & Bingley nationalisation damages Labour politically - Ya think? Oo - possible loyal (or at least buyable) voters. Let's throw lost cause voters' money at them!
