This is the last time I allow you to use my blog for your party lies and distortions. I don't care if you have seventeen Nobel Prizes for Economy and a Butlin's Entertainer of the Year to boot, this is a foul stew of assertions, misrepresentations and outright nonsense.
1) My original post was that Blair had forced the local authorities to increase their tax. As you lie about what I said, I am not surprised that the rest of your answer is nonsense too. (And tell me, do they give PhDs to people who can't spell your, these days? Donkey.) You just assert that "there are no commitments on local authorities forcing them to raise taxes", a pure assertion which you back with no data of any kind. Your thesis is that British local authorities are so corrupt or incompetent that the sudden and devastating rise in local tax in the last few years is somehow the result of their own corruption and incompetence going back forty years. To say that this thesis is counter-intuitive is to be kind, and you back it with no more than pompous allusions.
2) Of course I do not condone Livingstone for lying during the election; but as for his use of taxes, I will wait till I see what happens to public transport. So far he has visibly improved the bus services, which are the one thing in which your foul Scottish chieftain had not hampered him. Anyway, for a Blairite to complain about someone lying to the public is really the height of shamelessness... WMDs, anyone?
3)The report I spoke of was published on March 19, 2004. Check your facts before you charge others with not checking theirs, donkey. And so far, I have quoted a source (of which you were ignorant) and you have quoted none, except titles which you may, for all I know, have bought. And you certainly show no such eminence that I should respect your intellect.
4)Don't be ridiculous. If you knew anything about private enterprise, like those of us who have actually worked in it (I have been a publisher and I have worked for a business consultant), you would not tell me romantic shit about their taking risks. No businessman ever goes into any business that he considers risky. And if your darling contractors ever find out that anything is going wrong, they immediately demand more taxpayers' money from the Treasury. If you want instances, we can go on till tomorrow.
5) Ah, yes, the famous 5% shit numbers from the Treasury. If you want me to take that crap seriously, at least show some acquaintance with the fact that those so-called numbers have been challenged and refuted. You are a crass careerist cad who will believe whatever is most convenient for him/her to rise, but at least don't try to bother those of us who actually have no axe to grind.
6)Of course you don't support the Government. That would imply that you have any principles. You support your own swift rise through whoever is in charge, and you know that the top bureaucrats in the Treasury (an institution that easily compares with the Home Office for repellent morals and poisonous influence on national life) are currently solid for the private plunder of state funds.
7)You are building less hospitals and schools with private money than you were when the State ran the bloody things, and paying more. Anything else is lying shit. And when the bill comes in forty years, the State won't be able to build anything at all; right now we are only paying interest on the capital.
As for my title to comment on these things, you foul, superior, ignorant, posturing piece of scum with your lips already itching for the trough, I am a citizen. Do you understand that? I am a citizen. If you ever want to talk to me again, get that revolting sneer of superiority out of your foul face, or I'll take the privilege of a free man and wipe it for you. And learn to spell your and check your sources.
