To put the amount into perspective the South East has £6,304 for each person.<br /><br />You would do everyone a favour if you insisted the Westminster government asked the people in Wales to re-join England as a political unit, or get out completely and go it alone. Westminster created a monster made up of mediocre politicians whose only attribute is the ability to spend our hard earned taxes like water.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05037177825712467778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8149296713213520917.post-5898645645921195942010-01-21T22:01:22.226+00:002010-01-21T22:01:22.226+00:00Power 2010 is a crap site where you cannot vote ag...Power 2010 is a crap site where you cannot vote against a proposal.
