Guest guest Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 Hi Fraggle > yeah, but at least yer government helps ya out a bit Hardly.... they take National Insurance payments from our wages in order to " cover " it, but we actually get back way less than we pay... Britain has the lowest percentage of disposable income of the whole of Western Europe, because of the taxes which supposedly support the welfare state!!
