Well, a mass cull could ease the burden on welfare.

Remember, a vote for TB is a vote for practical progress ;)

We now spend more on welfare than we raise in income tax.  ::)

I bet the Ruzzians were really scared by the RFA supply ship that was sent to shadow them through the Channel the other day because most of the RN's warships are broken.  ::)  :-X

 With models of the Tirpitz and Bismarck 6 year old Opti had more naval firepower in his bath than the UK has today. How we became this run down I don't quite know. :-\

Pensions are the biggest expenditure. Too many old people and  too few working age people to pay for them.

.....and it's only going to get worse.

The Liberal party set up pensions in 1909......offering a few crumbs for people over 70. ::)

I think there were about a dozen people who made it to 70 back then. >:D

Ah....the famous TB cull. I wondered where this had gone. :)
LZ called me a Nazi, so it's been under wraps for a while ;D

According to AI overview the pension in 1909 was 5/- (25p) for a single pensioner and 7/6d (37.5p) for a married couple.

Apparently these figures equate to £20 and £30 a week in todays money.

Should we go back to this or implement TB's cull.... ::) :o 8) >:D
