We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

Taxpayers Are Charged for the BBC Whether They Like it or Not Sat Nov 22, 2025 11:00 | Charlotte Gill
It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

Government commends builders for their offer of assistance.
Brendan Hickey managing director of Davy Hickey Properties, Jim Mansfield of Citywest Hotel and Conference Centre, and Pat Doherty's Harcourt Developments all separately confirmed yesterday that they would save the taxpayer 37 billion Euros and pay for an integrated rail system,not only in Tallagh,but throughout the entire province of Leinster.
"We also own thousands of acres of land around the towns of Navan ,Drogheda,Kildare,and county Dublin" They declared yesterday.."If Bertie gives us the go ahead to build new housing estates everywhere,we will pick up the tab-and more importantly we will build the railways quickly and efficiently (because it's our money.!)"
"This will enable Martin Cullen to cancel his pet road building projects through Tara, and eliminate bad feeling with the Heritage headbangers.Furthermore the money allocated for new highways can be given to the St Vincent De Paul society to assist the urban poor, in their voting preferences,during the Fianna Fail re-election campaign."It's a win win situation for everybody" they declared.
An integrated rail system,at last
He must not be as smart as he appears as some nasty characters pulled the woll over his eyes using one of his planes to carry 50k of heroin. He must be very shocked indeed :(
Do you reckon theres any chance of the Moon Landing being brought forward? India plans a Moon Landing for 2008* it would be nice to beat them. Nice to have friends who can give you a dig out. Wasnt there some Bolivian Drug Baron in the 1980s who offered to pay off the countrys National Debt?

Yes of course they will pay for a transport system to bring captive customers to their shop. 37 mil no problem I hear them say, sure thats only the odd 10 grand on the price of each gaf we build, but we'll stick on 100 grand cause our "quality homes" will have direct access to an integrated transport system that must increase the value. The moon was mentioned, with the price of the proposed houses sky high we'll be able to walk to the moon or even go via "integrated transport".
