I read alot today. Two bitching worthy:

30,000 BA staff will likely work for nothing to save BA. BA's chief executive Willie Walsh has already agreed to work unpaid in July, forgoing his month's salary of £61,000. There's no rocket science when times were great, who got the huge amount bonuses and left minimal tokens to the rest. So, I'm not sure why there's insistence by Willie to equalise the suffering when rewards weren't equal at all. Can the lowest income BA staff, probably earning less than £18,000 per month continue day by day as easily as Willie?

Each household with fixed phone line to pay new 50p tax per month to help rural areas that can't get broadband. The rural areas - estimated to be around one-third - won't be reached by commercial efforts. The tax will help 90% of the UK benefit from broadband of up to 50Mbps by 2017. I'm sure if there's much lesser frauds with efficient funds usage, fixed phone line customers wouldn't need to bear the brunt of the government's ambition to get entire UK in super speed. Quite likely, this tax would not stop even if there's enough funds. If there are about 24 m households out of 70 m population, that's £144m per year. Taxes just couldn't go down but upwards, making people pay for shit created by others.

Socialism for good days, communism practise during bad days?
