Apparently, according to a friend who lives over there, the Australian Government has given all taxpayers a Aus$1000 (about£500) handout, to stimulate the economy!! :o :o :o
Bearing in mind that Aus$1000 goes further there than £500 would here, thats quite nice isn't it??? ::)
I guess that our lot are too busy feathering their own nests, to worry about the plebs >:( >:( >:(

Interesting - in Australia there are about 21 million people of which (I'm guessing) a third at most are taxpayers ergo 7 million recipients.
Same calculation: 60 million in UK = 20 million taxpayers.
Even for this government that is one hell of a lot of expenses ;D ;D

Maybe they are just giving to the people being hurt by the crunch what our lot gave to the bankers who were instrumental in it's cause !!!!
-
Apparently, its caused quite a political Hoo Haa, as it's the new Labour government dishing out the cash!!
But they didn't have to bail out their banks to the same extent as we did :o as their banks were a bit more sensible in their lending than ours ::)
I think that there's alot of living rooms in Australia with new plasma tellys!! ;D

If I 'forgot' to pay the capital gains tax on a second home, and then when I got caught, waved my cheque about crying 'Ooops sorry' do you think that the IR would just say 'Oh, don't worry, thanks for the cheque tho...' ::) ::)
Would they heck!! I'd get taken to the cleaners!!! >:( >:( >:(

"that's alright, Sir, we all make mistakes" says Mr DSS .... I should coco !!!!!!!
