Albert Tatlock Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 I don't know where all these so called 'leaks' are coming from, such as 2p on income tax. Can't see that myself, the repercussions for business on the island would be massive. If something like that did happen, with £44m of taxpayer's cash going into the government only pension pot this year, and £60m extra pissed away on a ferry terminal...and numerous other wastes of cash, there would rightly be a major uproar and petitions all round to force several by-elections. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There won't be any reaction other than a few angry comments on Facebook, Twitter, on here and perhaps a couple of petitions that will be forgotten about beyond a couple of weeks. The Island population is remarkably docile and it will take a lot more to cause any sort of real protest. Even the kids that wanted Daphne and Co. to fix climate change got bored/grew out of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
