How fukt is this? Imagine copping an 87% hike in council taxes because the champagne socialists in charge cant redo a swimming pool for anything less than $122 million Dollarydoos..

“The rate hike comes as a result of the council's ongoing and disastrous handling of the redevelopment of the famous Olympic pool.

Its redevelopment is now expected to cost about $122.2m, a significant increase on the previous estimate of $91.5 million.

The pool was initially slated to cost around $30 million at the start of its redevelopment.”

For a start, one tends to be left alone to get on with life. We are quite discerning about which statutes we regard as being useful to us.

Show me a government anywhere in the world that works for the people rather than having the people work for the sate.

I have come to the same conclusion from my time in SE Asia. They’re not efficient enough to get in people’s way and as a result, the people flourish.
