The next great leap forward in social engineering from the Albionese, a new tax scheme under which instead of you getting paid by your employer, your employer send your check to the British Equivalent of the IRS, they take out what they think you ought to pay, and then give you what’s left. Call it, ‘The Government Eats First.’
It’s just the next logical step after withholding, isn’t it? And what could possibly go wrong with letting bureaucrats have your paycheck before you do?
Speaking of Airstrip One, Jennifer Saunders, the chick from Absolutely Fabulous, which you’ve probably heard of if you’re gay, has been treated for breast cancer and is recovering.

I’ve never watched ‘Absolutely Fabulous,’ but I’ve occasionally seen Jennifer Saunders’ roles when she does voice work for animated films (i.e. the Fairy Godmother in ‘Shrek 2,’ one of the eccentric neighbors in ‘Coraline’). It’s good that she’s recovering, but horrible that so many other women can’t get breast cancer treatment. Britain has long been a “Canary in the coal mine” early warning system of what will happen in America if the liberals get too much power.
