Couldn't the gainsayers give them a chance to show what they're made of and wish them a following wind and a calm sea?

Criticism of attempts to get the wealthy to pay vat on their childrens education, or introducing an element of means testing into the payment of winter fuel assistance, is mean spirited, to say the least.

The carpers should remember we're all in the same boat.

All in the same boat Sandy?  Aye, but some of us are on liners and some of us are in canoes.

We may be all in the same boat but there's a helluva difference between first class and steerage.

Some of us have worked hard all our working lives to save up to buy our boats and others, because they dont get off their backsides, are so envious that they would deny us  using our boats

Quite right, Rosetta.  

"Criticism of attempts to get the wealthy to pay vat on their childrens education," - because this will not increase tax receipts and will inmfact increase the governments own costs. All the borderline kids who's parents are striggling to send them will have to go to state schools at £7000 per head oh dear! Then there is the VAT itself, those that do pay it will pay it out of something else that would already have been taxed so no increase in revenue there. Labour do not think they just pick on those they don't like, that seems more important to them than any sort of economic logic.

What is mean spirited is not providing a state pension good enough to cover bills without extra winter payments.

Wasn't the Titanic on a "shakedown voyage"?
