Now the big funders of ASH are coming out into the open. Note that the survey was not done through YouGov.<br /><br />Maybe the Gov is becoming wary about funding lobby groups.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-8450552873185617622011-12-29T19:46:23.879+00:002011-12-29T19:46:23.879+00:00I'm sure there's some hidden anti-EU angle...I'm sure there's some hidden anti-EU angle in this somewhere.Curmudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02558747878308766840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3141759542968821728.post-41075706461346097552011-12-29T19:43:28.334+00:002011-12-29T19:43:28.334+00:00Monty: You're no doubt very close to the truth...Monty: You're no doubt very close to the truth.

He wants a massive hike in the tax.<br />I know he has only proposed a minimum price, but he knows that is illegal according to EU regulations we are already signed up to. So this announcement is just window dressing.

Why would anyone risk their life if they've got a working telly (and/or PC) to tell them how to think? The revolution will have to wait... but hey, if it kicks off in the next few months, count me in!<br /><br />Twenty, we've long ago discounted Oz and NZ as viable choices (and this is just frightening: http://tinyurl.com/d8tkelv).
