Quote Of The Day

The media and parliament has been deceived by the so-called Taxpayers' Alliance. They are widely quoted as an independent voice. To our shame the Select Committee on which I serve PASC called one of their spokespeople as a witness.

The Guardian reveals today that one of their directors does not pay any UK tax.
Paul Flynn MP

Where to start?

1. The Guardian isn't in a position to moralise, despite being a UK newspaper it doesn't pay tax on its £300m profits.

2. For an MP who charged the taxpayer £10,000 for legal expenses on a case he went on to admit liability, lecturing others on the payment and use of tax is a bit rich.

Paul Flynn's chutzpah is only dwarfed by his ridiculousness.

Newport deserves better.

Hi VM,

Blogging has stopped for the moment. Had quite a few major incidents in my private and working life and to be honest blogging is the last thing on my mind.
