It's only 1% after all!

It has been estimated that the total pollution output of the whole UK is just 1% of the global problem!

When you see the Chinese opening a bew coal fired power station every week of every month of the last two years and that they are currently constructing 50 new international airports!

Put's our gas guzzling 4 x 4's into perspective doesn't it?

It's a stealth tax and that's all it is - simple!

Don't even get me started on the "Global War on Terror" farce! It's finally gone! Replaced with BMW 730SE in Sophisto grey Xirallic finish with Oyster (Ivory) and black interior. DAB, Climate glass, Ceramic iDrive and gear selector, power boot and iPhone Bluetooth pack - luvvin' it!

I miss my old RRS "bucket" rattling around but it just had to go!

I'll make it quick, very quick.

There was no 9/11, well not as the US have said anyway. The aircraft used to hit WTC were cargo variants not even of the type used by AA or United Airlines.

No A/c ever hit the Pentagon, it was a Hellfire or Paveway missile (Bunker Buster) - (think about it, every inch of the Pentagon (the most secure building on the planet) is covered by CCTV cameras yet there is not a single frame of video that shows an A/c hitting the building! Strange no?

The war on terror is about a 50 year strategic grab for the last remaining 40% of global oil stock (sitting under Iraq). Remember that the Chinese, the fastest growing economy on Earth (and the country with the largest army) have already secured the Iranian oil ( hence their reluctance to support sanctions against Iran for their nuclear programme).

Consider how many raw materials China actually has - coal actually and that's about all.

An economy thier size cannot continue to grow without steel, copper and other minerals etc. so they are grabbing it across the planet (Africa for example for their copper (for cables) which is why all the despots in Africa can sit pretty as they know they have the protection of the Chinese (Sudan for example).

The area to watch is the Russian / Chinese border over the next 10 years.

Ameriacans are seeing the erosion of their liberties based on the war on terror when really its about controlling the populous.

Here too there has been a degradation of our liberties and I don't mean all the liberal stuff, I mean ANPR systems storing our registration numbers for 7 years when we haven't even done anything wrong!!

I coud go on! It's finally gone! Replaced with BMW 730SE in Sophisto grey Xirallic finish with Oyster (Ivory) and black interior. DAB, Climate glass, Ceramic iDrive and gear selector, power boot and iPhone Bluetooth pack - luvvin' it!

This country is a big poo - a big time. Taxes, taxes all over the place!!! So basically they are ripping us off. Council tax is so unaceptable.

I would be better off living in Dubai. I am thinking of buying an apartment there as it is sooooooooooo fecking cheap ! I went there recently and I have set up a car hire business there - renting out Range Rover Sport as it has a very HUGE demands out there......A good market to hire RRS in Dubai. Very Happy

I just had a visa bill of £14.20 to fill up a 4.2 S/C !!! Shocked So cheap.....Down in this poo country, about £75 to fill up !!

yes but basically a cut by 2p in the basic rate of income tax will cover that. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
