Fare Tax Total
Adults 1 £258 £247 = £505
TOTAL FROM £505
This is why I tried to get a petition to get travel tax reduced, the tax is almost the cost of actual airfare. Fare £258 Tax £247.Last edited by The Tech Clerk; 18 February 2013, 14:13.

DVLA may be losing documents drivers are sending them (e.g. SORN and V5C driver declaration documents) and then sending out fines because these forms have not been received by the DVLA.I'm keen to speak anyone else who feels they've been affected. You can call my work phone: 07711913307 or 02077654919.Best wishes,MarkBBC Radio

REGARDING THE JACKSON REFORM|:-
Thank you for your email.
I agree that this is a very worrying reform and it is something I have raised with Ministers before.
I will be happy to ask the Justice Secretary questions and I will keep you updated with any response I receive.
Yours sincerely,

What worries me though is its automatic opt in, YOU have to opt out yourself, and every so often (forget how long) your put back on it again UNLESS you opt out yet again.
You pay in to it, the employer does also, when you come to retire, guess what? the government spent it years ago just like the rest.
Id advise everyone to opt out personally.
Much like the opt out scheme when company pension payments into, then when you were 55 about if you are aware you better opt back into the government scheme, they messed around so much over the years and the answer is many people lost out.Last edited by The Tech Clerk; 10 February 2013, 21:35.

I have sympathy for the low paid civil servants when you see pensions like that, No wonder the public see public sector pensions as gold plated.

The problem as so rightly pointed out is there is no pension pot. All our pensions will be paid for by our children and grandchildren.
All that North Sea Oil riches squandered. Norway put a % away in a sovereign wealth fund to be used for its population.
Our lot used it for idelodgical purposes. Close the industries down pay for domes and stupid policies that are now well gone. Now the riches have gone its the next generation that will be paying.

Re: Tech Clerks - General Debt Matters Thread
Pratt of the Week.
Michael George Bichard, Baron Bichard, KGB,
This week it goes to the hugely smug Lord Bichard, who is a former benefits chief and sits on a quango looking at demographic changes and their impact on public services.
He has said that retired people should do community work or face losing part of their pension so as not to be a burden on the state.
Firstly, the moron should know that pensioners have paid in for their pensions in good faith, having been told that National Insurance would give them a good pension. People have contributed for their pensions and it is their pension. It is not for the government to use as a carrot or a stick. During good times, the government should have built up a pension reserve rather than used pension funds for funding vanity projects like the millennium dome so that state pensions were not the giant Ponzi scheme they are now.
Lord Bichard also needs reminding that community service is a judicial sanction judges can give criminals. Is being a pensioner therefore, going to be a criminal act in his brave new world?
His lordship is setting a perfect example
At the ripe old age of 54 he retired from the Civil Service in May 2001 with a pension of £120,000 p.a.! (Index Linked)
Lord Bichard - well deserving Pratt of the Week!
