I have a cunning plan.
Let's demolish the Houses of Parliament. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-33184160 £5.7 Billion to repair it. No thanks. Demolish it. Build a smaller (much smaller) building to house the ELECTED members of parliament. Disband the Lords (saving several hundred other millions) Sell of a huge swathe of property in a highly desirable riverside location for Billions more. Perhaps they could then modify the changes to Tax Credit cuts (modification is still necessary). Win Win!

QUOTE (motormad @ Nov 3 2015, 03:19 PM)  Yeah, that's not going to happen though is it. Probably not, I'd imagine Westminster Parish Councillors are likely to be rather more prudent than their colleagues in say Thatcham or Greenham.... -------------------- Know your place!
