The LibDems take a strong stand against tax cuts and a strong one in favour of public services: they would make long-term residential care for the elderly free across the UK, and scrap university tuition fees. They are in favour of a ban on smoking in public places, but would relax laws on cannabis. They propose to change vehicle taxation to be based on usage rather than ownership.

BNP and UKIP? , I dont think so. Neither skinheads nor small parties interest me particularly - and I was joking about Moseley.

Negative effects of the Euro ; put quite simply we are all a good deal worse off since its introduction. The Euro came in at 1 Euro to 2 DM almost exactly , but while our salaries were exactly converted prices in shops were not. What used to cost 5 DM is now 4-5 Euros. We have always had much higher taxes than the UK , but much cheaper shopping and while it is still slightly cheaper here , it is far more than it used to be. Add to that the fact that Germany no longer controls its own currency making the current problems in the old east worse than they need to be and its easy to see why the Euro has no fans here.
Don`t forget that while the UK has been promised a referendum , Germans were simply told when the Euro was to replace the DM.

Aaah yes, the old "the numbers on the notes are changing, so we'll put up the prices" trick. Bastards.

And I agree about control of the currency - I don't actually think that the eurozone economies were similar enough to have the euro be that successful.

Still, it's more successfull than the dollar, making imports from there nice and cheap.

Happened with decimalisation over here. Not really the government's actual action, but that of the companies selling the things. Of course the gov could have made efforts to prevent/crackdown on this, I suppose, but how exactly, would they enforce it?

And as a good capitalist, shouldn't you approve of companies maximising profits for their shareholders ? :-)

I think that, like my husband, you may actually be a feudalist masquerading as a Conservative :-)
