10 Downing Street Petition Of The Week

Lockheed Martin are in the running to take over the UK Census from the Office Of National Statistics. Personally, I don't think that's right. If you agree why not sign the petition to keep an arms dealer from taking our most personal information.

To be honest I'm not very confident that outsourcing Government work to private corporations is a good idea in general and that confidence completely disappears when it comes to our private data. I don't think we should be outsourcing our census just to save a few million... why not just cancel the ID card project and save money that way? For more info check out the campaign site.




So now we see that Gordon Brown and his Government have betrayed us. They don't intend to stand up to the Tories. They just intend to steal the Tories policies. Well Mr Brown, I'm not going to fall for that one; I just hope no one else does either.

The "latest" idea is to use tax policy to encourage marriage.

Chief Secretary to the Treasury Andy Burnham told the Daily Telegraph: "It's not wrong that the tax system should recognise commitment and marriage."

He did not advocate specific changes to the tax system, but said there was a "moral case" for using tax to promote the traditional family unit.


A moral case? A MORAL CASE? How can this Government speak of morals when it is engaged in selling off our country bit by bit to private companies? How can this Government speak of morality when it is scandalously not moving to stop the rampant destruction of this green and pleasant land?

This Government wants to interfere with our private lives far too much...




And for all of us who want to live life more sedately. Don't you wish life could be like that!

  1. LOCKHEED MARTIN?! YIKES! Might as well put Halliburton in charge of administering the NHS while they're at it!
