    Pete Doherty - that'd be good. We'd get to see all our taxes go up in smoke........
    This country is called Great Britain. It would be called Amazing Britain if it wasn't for people like you pulling the average down

    Carol isn't on the list because a person who is involved in dodgy financial TV advertising isn't to be trusted, which is why this site held a petition asking her to stop.
    The trouble was she needed the cash, so she couldn't give it up. The petition should have offered her an alternative..., advertising underwear for example!!

    Bad news Guppy, I've asked Martin to give the Chancellor lessons in the past, he's to busy with MSE.
    Go on Martin, stand for election, there are plenty of us out there refusing to vote until someone worthy comes forward!
    I'll turn out if you're on the ballot paper.

    I voted for Nick Leeson, as none of us would have to pay tax as several trillion will magically appear and move around trading accounts :D

    Either that or Paul Daniels as he could make tax disappear "thats magic"
