Autoshite seat in government , what would you do ?????

[joethornton1986]

bring back a rolling cat tax exemption for 'historic vehicles' over 25 years old!

[Des]

A reason from labour for us to vote blue............ If only.

 

 

The EEC is some bad shit, they've written up a rulebook about 5 phone directories thick which is largely bad news. No fucker in government can be arsed to read any of it. There's a guy in Ireland I went to school with called Declan Ganley, he read the big book of Brussels bollocks a few years ago. This was just before Ireland had the big vote on yes or no to bending over and dropping their kecks for some bareback action from ze eurocock, it was a done deal, except Declan kicked off an energetic campaign to vote no, he worked very hard to point out the nasty sinister shit, and there's some real gestapo stuff, bye to free speech, armed officers immune from prosecution, etc. He pulled it off, the vote went against the eurotwats, so the vote was repeated again, after the economy went down the shitter, and then the bastards got the answer they wanted.

I'm wondering how much industrial explosive it would take to propel Anglesey away from mainland Wales? I could skilfully navigate my way around Ireland and set up a new Atlantic state, drifting endlessly around the ocean currents.Just think - owing to the island being so small, no-one would really consider it a threat, so I'd have free rein to make up and enforce my own laws. I'd already have a full-sized port, plus a decent-sized airport (once I'd kicked out the RAF. Hmm, that might be tricky actually...) I'd designate Holyhead as a prison community and build a 40-foot wall around it, with guard towers containing machine-gun turrets - not for stopping escapes, just for occasional fun/population culls.I'd openly advertise the island as a 'tax haven', leading to thousands of rich foreigners giving me their money. Best of all, I'd force everyone to learn, and speak, the most archaic and obsolete language I could find, possibly a lost dialect of Swahili? (now you know how I felt about Welsh, you tossers...)All of my decisions about taxing, development and service provision would be decided by playing my proposals through a 10-year old version of Sim City. The A55 would become a test track to rival the 'Ring, attracting a constant stream of automotive tourists. I'd build a factory providing the population with subsidised replica Tatras and Moskvitches, while imposing ludicrous import duties on all other marques.There'd be no restriction on emigrants, although immigrants would all be interviewed by me, personally - in fact, they'd each have to spend a week with me on my country estate so that I could vet their character and personality properly. Eventually, the entire population would be comprised of cool people, and I would have achieved Utopia.Awesome.

I'd suggest Euskara, spoken in the Basque country.

Friday night as they try to catch the ferry.... WOOOOOOSH!!!!!

I think I'm being mostly swayed by dieselnutjob's manifesto at the moment. "Don't feck with it!" has a good catchy ring to it.

Vote AUTOSHITE "Just piss off"

[hennabm]

Ban trucks from overtaking on two lane dual and motorways. Make their max speed 60mph everywhere except where otherwise restricted so they don't cause hold ups on single carriageways.Remove speed limits from 3 lane motorways for anything under 3.5t when dry and reduced speeds when wet (something the Germans DO have right).Make Scotland independent and make all the oil theirs!. Make English people change their currency at the border or not accept it at all. See how they like it!Demolish the Scottish Parliament building and build a "proper" looking place.Go back to gallons for fuel sales then we can see just how much we are been ripped off.Fuel prices to fall as quickly as crude; just like now when the crude rises it's instant.Bring in proper immigration controls like "f**off we are full up" Only allow in as many immigrants as there are people leaving the UK.MPs to be paid for what they do.... oh well that's them owing us alot then Expenses for travelling only. None of this rented accommodation c** that they are now suggesting. The Australian way of one big hotel near the Parliament just for them makes sense.A difficult one this but introduce "common sense" lessons into schools and hopefully in time that should reduce the need for all these namby pamby liberal lefty laws and H&S we have now.Stands down off soapbox.

[Cavcraft]

Oi! It's not 'your' oil any more than water that falls in reservoirs in Wales (for example) is their's, and I though you had independance?Regarding oil and what have you, I'd be a bit concerned about imported oil due to lower shipping costs and what appears to be foreign companies trying to buy into British petrochemical plants, if it happens.

wow, I have a voter! I'm ahead in the opinion poles!!Pete you can expect delivery of your diesel soon and confiscation of any illegal gas guzzlers that you have hidden away.

actually we are not independant...Thankfullyas for the Oil, I beleive the bulk of whats left is actually under Norweigan waters but we steal it and for whats left of it it really isn't worth the bothering

[hennabm]

Somebody thinks it still must be worth bothering as there is a big investment soon to start at Sullom Voe terminal. If there wasn't much left I don't think they would be planning on investing the millions to revamp the site.

My first shot at some road policies as it seems to be the most important manifesto item on AS.

 

There won't be any road tax on anything because a car that isn't moving doesn't cause any pollution.

 

Road tax discs will be replaced by an insurance disc so that you can see instantly whether a car is uninsured or not. Any uninsured car on the public road (except being A framed, towed etc) will instantantly become government propery and will be sold to create a fund to pay for damage in any accident with an uninsured driver.

 

Tax on fuel will be proportional to the carbon content in it. If it's some kind of "waste" product (does that include LPG?) then it'll attract no tax. I don't know if I beleive in global warning but I it's the most logical way to appease those that do. Anyone that says that we should all go and live in a tree and not throw anything away or whatever will be required live in a tree and not through anything away.

 

Concerning overtaking lorries I'll just put up signs in problem spots and every now and again on dual carriage ways saying that lorries can't overtake. So when you are on a single carriage way and you finally get to the that short bit of dual, you'll find a sign banning lorries from overtaking there. Also lorries will be allowed an "overboost" on their speed limiters so that they are allowed to turn it off for say two minutes to overtake quickly.

 

Parking fines will be proportional to the length of infraction. So you get caught stopping on a single yellow for like 1 minute. The fine will be £2. Do it for 1 hour and it's £120. The price per minute will be related to the chaos caused in that area by people breaking the rule. So central London it might be £10 but a quiet village 10p. edit I guess we need to find a way to stop the stupidly rich just parking where they want and causing chaos, so probably after 10 minutes will tow it away.

 

Concerning road/rail building.

Compulsory purchase of property will be set at 200% of the value of your house so that you will be pleased if a new ring road is announced though it. Also we'll think of a way of pleasing those very near these new roads, maybe offer to buy their house at a level that's proportional to the proximity. Now we'll have some houses so homeless families or whatever still get a council house but it's near a motorway or something. If you are genuinely homeless/destitute I'm sure you'll still appreciate it.

[Pete-M]

Phew... none of my stuff uses gas, they're all petrol powered!DOWN WITH DIESEL!!!!, VOTE FOR PETE'S PETROL POWERED PARTY!

I'm allowed to make this up as I go along, so...the principle of "feck off and leave us alone" is that we are sick of interfering. Therefore if anyone wants to tell anyone else that diesels should be banned, then they will be forced to drive a diesel. Anyone that dawdles in the fast lane will be banned from the fast lane so that they can never overtake.

Reintroduce the Poor Laws and build new workhouses, full-on 1800s style ones with dirty-faced children eating gruel and being regularly thrashed.Also I'd like to see branding with a hot iron make a comeback, V for vagabond, etc.

I think they call them "call centres" these days.

point taken, but I was reading a report online last week where they reckoned that there is less than 10 years left with what they have found....

[Justin Case]

I would make all politicians stand in front of a mirror first thing in the morning and say 'I am the servant of the people who elected me, not their master, and everything I do will be ruled by that' Break the promise - OUTNot elected but think they can still tell us what to do - OUTJob done

Flat rate of road tax for cars/vans, disc doesn't apply to a particular vehicle, you just pay for it at the post office. You could then swap it bettween cars and you'd be legal. MOT and insurance would be on discs as well.No speed cameras, but 1000's more marked police cars on the road. Road traffic laws to be applied to all, so a cyclist that goes through a red light is punished to the same degree that a driver would be.A new offence of 'driving like a twat' to be introduced, this would cover things like driving on the wrong side of the road to get to the front of a queue of traffic, for example.Re-introduction of the death penalty for displaying 'L' plates when there isn't a learner driving.

[transfer]

Mmm, most of us seem to conclude that road tax is a ridiculous system. We're right, too - there are very few points in its favour. Except for this corrupt govt to make mony out of those of us who forget to SORN. Anyway, the 'road tax' isn't spent on roads, but on subsidising those who come here to be treated for chronic diseases for free. Can't blame them, really. Just a shame that our own have done the dirty on us tax payers by both lying and over-taxing.
