What really anoys me is that I heard Gordon Brown saying that Britain was going to by Darfur a load of mosquito nets, I think it was 20,000 at $10 each
Don't get me wrong, i'm all for charity but there are two things. 
1) Charity should always start at home, we still have homeless in this country. 2) If I want to give to charity it's up to me which one I give it to. Why should Gordon Brown take my tax money that I pay for the running of THIS country and give it to countries abroard. Yes povity is terrible and all that but that's not the point. He's giving all this money abroard yet we have to donate to the Air Ambulance to keep it flying 
I understand that the price of oil may be going up but why should the government proffit from that. I think the tax on fuel should not be worked out per pound but should be a fixed rate per litre. They say it's for the environment...rubbish. They say it's to reduce congestion...to make life easier for the rich. But what about the poor buggers who live in the counrtyside and have to travel miles to get to work?
Problem is that people don't complain enough in this counrty, we all just sit back and put up. However what happens when all us counrty folk end up on th doll cos we can't afford to get to work?
Your thoughts...
