I am still gobsmacked that you have the audacity to complain about paying tax
when you can receive a 10K pay rise and a bonus. My wages would rise by something like 40-50% if I got that.

i don't complain about paying tax
although obviously i would prefer not to.

i complain vociferously about what they spend the money on. less lesbian quangos looking into the effects of wearing knee-high socks as opposed to ankle-socks on 4-5 year olds and more pay for doctors and teachers, please!

someone in the pub the other night had an additional idea to my
"you get your fees paid for if your A-levels are good enough" idea.

if you piss around at uni and get less than a certain mark, you have to pay the fees back.
