Incidentally, taxes pay our (the armed forces') wages, which you might like to bear in mind, next time you're tempted to bleat about how much of your income (or inheritance) ends up with the Revenue.
I dont think any of us didnt realise that little Gem Scud...but it also pays the 40 year old chap who has a wife and 4 children none of which has ever worked a day in their lives. Then we have to employ unskilled labour from foreign countries because we havent the workforce in this one. That doesnt make sense...
