That must be expensive. It makes sense to have free public transport and making hugh savings in having to do all this. Makes you think what kind of a hold Big Business has over the Scottish Parliament.George Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11895772786602450635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33916970.post-41415266156902090082007-04-02T01:03:00.000+01:002007-04-02T01:03:00.000+01:00On a very quiet day in the house of commons when t...On a very quiet day in the house of commons when there were only a few MPs in the house of commons a bill was passed in amongst some other bills it was a bill that broke a promise given by a Labour government back in the 1970s...<BR/><BR/>SERPS (the State Earnings Related Pension Scheme) was also known as the additional State Pension. It ran from 6 April 1978 to 5 April 2002 when it was reformed by the State Second Pension. A person who was in employment may have paid into SERPS.<BR/><BR/>New Labour have now said that...<BR/><BR/>The maximum amount of State Second Pension a person may pass on to a surviving husband, wife or civil partner is 50%.<BR/><BR/>It used to be 100% a lot of people are unaware of what has happened and think their wife or husband or partner will be looked after if they die. The surviving spouse is in for a shock.<BR/>This is something that we must remedy when Socialists come to power Colin. It is also something we should point out to people at this election Colin.George Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11895772786602450635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33916970.post-11169623441898417552007-03-29T20:30:00.000+01:002007-03-29T20:30:00.000+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.George Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11895772786602450635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33916970.post-25997552265606983272007-03-28T13:38:00.000+01:002007-03-28T13:38:00.000+01:00Even if people vote for you Colin they might NOT b...Even if people vote for you Colin they might NOT be that`s how bad things have got under New Labour...<BR/><BR/>Taken from the Respect web site...<BR/><BR/>George Galloway exposes voting fraud - Video of Commons Speech <BR/>25/02/2007 <BR/> <BR/> <BR/>MPs from Poland and Germany are visiting Britain on behalf of the Council of Europe. In a humiliation for the government, they will be investigating the lack of integrity in Britain's voting system and the systematic corruption of the voting process. Voting fraud has mushroomed since the government introduced the postal voting on demand system.<BR/><BR/>In a major speech in the debate called by the Tory opposition in the Commons , George Galloway accused the government of a cynical subversion of the electoral system in order to increase their chances of winning general and local elections. Postal voting on demand has destroyed the secrecy of the ballot introduced in 1872 to stop corruption and allowed the easy theft of voters' ballot papers.<BR/><BR/>Copy and paste in two parts and then paste into address bar.<BR/><BR/>http://www.respectcoalition.org<BR/>/index.php?ite=1330George Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11895772786602450635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33916970.post-21148759692939174192007-03-27T11:55:00.000+01:002007-03-27T11:55:00.000+01:00george dutton wrote..."TOTAL farce The Scottish Pa...george dutton wrote...<BR/><BR/>"TOTAL farce The Scottish Parliament is to NEW Labour MSPs.They might as well just hook up a video link to number 10 and be done with it.Jack McConnell,well being a socialist I do not believe anyone to be a waste of space.But there again there is always an exception to the rule."<BR/><BR/>Jack McConnell<BR/><BR/>I see my words were Rather prophetic.Jack McDonald is the name his own party in Westminter think his name is they don`t even know who he is.So our Jack truly is the "exception to the rule" and is a "waste of space" it`s official ask Patricia Hewitt New Labours Secretary of State for Death I mean Health?.George Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11895772786602450635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33916970.post-39894637341384757802007-03-18T09:27:00.000+00:002007-03-18T09:27:00.000+00:00Colin wrote..."TONY BLAIR, THE WORST PRIME MINISTE...Colin wrote...<BR/>"TONY BLAIR, THE WORST PRIME MINISTER LABOUR HAS EVER HAD."<BR/><BR/>George wrote...<BR/>TONY BLAIR, THE BEST PRIME MINISTER THE TORIES HAS EVER HAD.George Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11895772786602450635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33916970.post-87809925032206638932007-03-09T12:04:00.000+00:002007-03-09T12:04:00.000+00:00Theresa May Shadow Leader of the House said..."Peo...Theresa May Shadow Leader of the House said...<BR/><BR/>"People think the Conservative party are the NASTY party."<BR/><BR/>For one awful moment I thought I agreed with a Tory then I realised she had said NASTY and I thought she had said Nazi.George Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11895772786602450635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33916970.post-2968269714827189542007-03-08T20:34:00.000+00:002007-03-08T20:34:00.000+00:00Colin wrote..."Blair supports Trident Two, so wee ...Colin wrote...<BR/>"Blair supports Trident Two, so wee Jack McConnell says ‘I support Trident Too’!<BR/>Blair supports 20 more nuclear power stations, Jack says ‘I support 20 more nuclear power stations too’.<BR/>Blair supports the illegal and barbarous war in Iraq, Jack McConnell supports it too.<BR/>Blair supports rendition flights, so does Jack.
