Work on Sundays

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: II feel that the right decision has been reached here, since her job is one that is needed at all times for the care of people who need care all the time.

However I find the logic a bit weird, to say that because some Christians work on Sundays it's not protected. Some members of all religions may do things that others think are wrong, and unless the religion has a centralised body that can excommunicate people, that logic could even mean that an enterprising employer could pretend to be an adherent of a religion, do the thing they wish to force their employees into, and then the law would protect them. I'd be interested to read the full judgement.


Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: IIt's very simple. If you don't want to do all of the parts of a job as stated in the contract, don't apply for the job.  Don't take the job and then bleat about your religion and expect special treatment as a result.

Heart of Honours

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: The whole honours system is an outdated anachronism.

That those honours determined and awarded directly by the Queen are the cleanest is one of the best arguments for constitutional monarchy rather than a (potentially corrupt) republic.

   

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: I think the public are mostly aware of where the stenches are and who it is that smells. No amount of honouring the dishonourable can change them. The quickest fix would be for those honourable peers to publicly reject their honours because they do not wish to be associated with the malodorous ne'er-do-wells. Also our newspapers, especially DT should do more on the name and shame.

Better Future With Dreams

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: We have kids who need help  in the UK too given that child poverty rose under Labour so maybe the funds should be used here.
On the other hand India has its space programme and said that it does not need British help.
Something does not seem right.


Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: The cultural traditions of India and other countries in the region are frightening and abhorrent.
That the British government has connived in bringing these practices into the local communities and telling us how wonderful multi-culturalism is, says a lot about the intellect or the deception of the socialist politicians.

Taxing councils

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: They are getting rid of diversity managers, out reach advisers, equal opportunity managers, access managers, gender enablers     and a host of other highly paid and useless jobs which for the last 13 years have been recruited through the Guardian newspaper and encouraged by the lax financial control exercised by muddlethought, balls and mad broon as they strove to create their client state


Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: Effectively what they are saying is that where previously the money going to councils was raised through central taxation. that money will now be raised locally through increased parking charges, speed cameras, litter fines, parking fines using  car number plate recognition technology, and other such indirect taxation methods.
Meanwhile the government can redirect more of the money from central taxation to the banks and fat cats at the top. While independent companies running local tax revenue operations will be raking in the profits while paying minimum wages.
We are all being robbed...wake up!

HMRC Info

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: The botom line on this is that tax is far too complicated. This in turn causes so many queries that the offices just cannot handle it.

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: This is yet another thing the government was going to do,make tax simple again,  but has done nothing about it.

Infrastructure and Development

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: I think what many of those of us who grew up in this country with inside toilets, a heat source, if not central heating, enough to eat, access to education and the NHS are perhaps not always able to appreciate the appalling conditions, with all those things absent, that many who arrive in Britain, legally and illegally as economic migrants have left behind.  They can and will latch on anywhere they can - for what we long ago left behind in terms of standards is to them a better life.

The problem with this is that we do not have the wealth, the resources, the space, the jobs, the accommodation for all these people and the effect of their arrival is to debase our average living standards in all of these areas.  This is going to get much worse.

The question needs to be asked as to why our borders have effectively been abandoned in a number of ways and what the agenda is in play to which we are not privy - European homogenisation or even this on a global level.  Have we signed up to this - or have our politicians been quietly suborned to a tacit programme.

The sewers are not the real issue, they are a symptom of the presence of sewer rats in the political system who are no longer telling us the truth about anything.

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: The reality is that in the Sixties, nearly three quarters of England was undisturbed by development. Today, urban sprawl and the roads it brings
intrudes across more than half of the country.

Do they? The Office of National Statistics appears to disagree:

"In England, "78.6% of urban areas is designated as natural rather
than built". Since urban only covers a tenth of the country, this means
that the proportion of England's landscape which is built on is…… 2.27%."

New Pension Reforms System Review

Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: When you finally retire your income is likely to be made up from a number of sources.  Some, such as the basic state pension, are very difficult to defend against change; but a lot can be done to improve others such as your private pension.  In aggregate these pots should then lead to a decent retirement.
 The government and finance industry are on side for making changes to create fairer retirements, but will always deal with groups in proportion to the pressure they can apply.



Online Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: If S2P is merged as part of the single-tier state pension the option to opt out will have to be removed, otherwise you would have the highly unfair situation where some pensioners are paying more for their state pension than others.

 Wait till we hear the screams of protest from all the public servants who are automatially opted out at present and will cease to get the associated 1.4% reduction in contributions when they are automatically opted in under the new scheme.  That's £400-£500 additional NI contributions for an average earner.

Waste disposal: a topic for Parliament?

Managing director of Mansfield waste disposal firm AsbesteX Ltd, Gary Bramwell was asked to put together a 1,000 word editorial for the Parliamentary Yearbook, which is distributed among politicians. This formed part of the book’s major environmental report.

Said Gary: “I was very pleased to be asked to write the piece for inclusion in the Parliamentary Yearbook, I’ve never been asked to do anything like that in my life and it’s nice to get a bit of recognition that someone things you’re doing a good job. Since doing the editorial, I was asked to talk on the BBC’s Politics Show about problems with asbestos disposal.”

Discussion Takes Place at Tax on Pensions

Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: Cuts are needed now! We must pay off the deficit. The
Treasury pays out some £7billion a year in higher rate tax relief. Cut the
higher rate tax relief and save £7 billion a year. Otherwise this is money down
the drain for the treasury.  You know it




Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: We've been warned enough times: Don't put a penny into a pension fund because it's likely it will be stolen to pay for the public sector's pensions, immigrants who've never paid into the fund and India's space program.

Mortgage Deal Topic Discussed

Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: I dont understand this world: Why would anyone take on 30 years of obligations (= mortgage) when he is given security ( = fixed interest rate)  for just 2 years?  Do they try to fool someone?

Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: I remember paying 15% on my mortgage in the 1980's, it was a life changer!  These days happily I am paying 0.67% on a lifetime tracker deal.

Parliamentary Yearbook 2012: A mortgage rate of 1.9%?.....Lucky sods....I started off in the 70's at 16%.....Mind you I saved, worked all the hours God sent and did without holidays etc to be able to pay it whilst also starting a business off.
Get the interest up to at least 8% so us savers can get a return on our hard earned wealth!
