That Ditty says a lot in a few words!
Contra, this topic started off quite neatly! Ooook brought up a solid topic and you came onstage right on cue with a grand response!
Britain has to worry about its private interests, however. Remember when Maggie Thatcher came to Aspen Colorado and shortly thereafter, the U.S. pledged to protect Kuwait? Kuwait=80% of U.K. oil at that time.
So guys, what are the major issues in THIS round of UK elections?

The problem is that it is us who get the increased tax. The upper 5% needs to foot more of the bill.
