Not at all. Why do you ask?Originally Posted by gnasher wrote on Fri, 13 February 2015 22:09
Because its (in my opinion) an interesting subject. What to believe and not what to believe. No wrong or right i was just interested on your thoughts.Originally Posted by TruBlue wrote on Fri, 13 February 2015 22:17
In general we have people on here who pretend not to believe a word the "mainstream media" say, yet as soon as their is a paedo, banking, political story on them, then believing the mainstream media becomes acceptable again. I like pointing out the hypocrisy of it.Originally Posted by gnasher wrote on Fri, 13 February 2015 22:41
The fact is you need to have your wits about you when dealing with all sources of media.Originally Posted by TruBlue wrote on Fri, 13 February 2015 23:04

Another interesting take on a two-tier system from the Daily Mail of all people (that should please a few on here!) .. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2951763/ALEX-BRUMM ER-rage-HMRC-Gestapo-pick-little-people-doing-cosy-deals-sup er-rich.html
I don't think Carr apologised because it was morally wrong, I think he apologised because he was worried about ticket and video sales.
The Daily Mail are coming out all guns blazing over this .. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2953164/The-tax-man- snout-trough-HMRC-boss-Dave-Hartnett-persecuted-small-taxpay ers-striking-sweetheart-deals-tax-avoiding-giants-did-HSBC-s candal-went-work-them.html

As i recall the issue was not just about finks personal fincances, it was not just about HSBC actively encouraging people to hide money from the tax man, it was about the governmnet appointing this shady character as a minister - well dodgy.Originally Posted by TruBlue wrote on Thu, 12 February 2015 12:52

well done Ed for rocking the Tory rich boat, great week for Labour , number 10 beckons
This story is far from over .. I think the parliamentary expenses scandal will pail into insignificance compared to this.
What we are hearing now are the lurid details about how the corruption and nepotism in our glorious country actually works.
So much for being a beacon of fairness and democracy for the whole world to admire, the truth is the whole system in Britain stinks.
And the elite paedophilia going on is merely a side-dish to the main-course of screwing the rank and file of this country over and over again.
How do you know how I'm going to vote? Just because I have the utmost contempt for a pair of brain dead muppets like Millipede and Ballsup. Nobody in their right mind, no matter what their allegiance could give those two any serious consideration as leaders of our country. I come from a fervent Labour supporting family but if my old dad were alive today he wouldn't contemplate for a moment, casting his vote for this pair of lightweight hypocrites. If, Gawd forbid, this pair of tw@ts should triumph at the election, we'd suffer a government of envy, resentment snd posturing. A country steeped in the image of Harriet Harperson. Gawd help you if you do well for yourself through your own enterprise. Gawd help you if you want to make choices on how you want to run your life and bring up your family. And God help the NHS - don't forget the Staffordshire scandal happened on their watch. More waste, less customer choice and posturing hypocrisy. I can hardly wait.Originally Posted by ragbone Red wrote on Thu, 12 February 2015 22:25
Not sure what the view is from your world but the basic living standards of many have been badly eroded in Wales under this coalition, interestingly the rich have got a lot richer, whilst others have lost their jobs ,homes and social care support .Originally Posted by jackrabbit wrote on Sat, 14 February 2015 18:55
Did anybody notice the disclosure that HMRC used the specific anti-terror RIPA legislation on a member of staff who alerted Parliament to potential wrong doing through a confidential reporting system designed to protect the informant. HMRC then proceeded successfully to destroy his life.
So much for TruBlue's worn-out theory that if you haven't done everything wrong then you don't have anything to worry about. How dare an employee alert the authorities to the fact that the boss of HMRC was about to let his future employers off a 6 billion pound tax bill!
Correction: It should read "if you haven't done everything wrong then you have nothing to worry about".Originally Posted by Gluteus Maximus wrote on Sun, 15 February 2015 09:45

suggests Labour might have gained a little from the tax stories during last week, but it's barely anything really and the Guardian poll has Cameron's personal rating being boosted slightly, while Miliband continues to struggle - I think the HSBC scandal has the potential to become a big issue in the coming weeks (although to whose benefit I'm not sure), but it seems to have changed very little on the political landscape so far.Originally Posted by ragbone Red wrote on Sat, 14 February 2015 17:15
