    Council Tax Reform

    Dear Christine

    Thank you for my copy of the newsletter.

    Your ability to obtain a response out of Phil Woolas MP, is a major triumph.

    You have the ability to make him think, which is marvellous. But you must get him to think the right thoughts, by asking him such searching questions, that he uses right thoughts to answer them, breaking new ground.

    Here are the key questions.

    Do you know that additional new money is needed to pay for some of the work, required to be done by local councils?

    Do you know that money to be spent for the benefit of future generations, does not exist, because of debts already present?

    Do you know that it is an economic and financial error, to borrow new money into existence?

    Do you know that in the existing monetary system, “The only source of new money, and there is no other, is credit issued by private banks”

    We know what Phil Woolas MP will answer, because it will be the same answer as my MP gives me. “Nothing wrong with that, that is what banks are for, it works very well”. Too true! It works well for the politician but not for the taxpayer.

    Before you ask these questions you need to study them well, until you realise that my MP proves himself, to be thoroughly dishonest, by his reply. When you ask these questions with enough passion of outrage, we shall win.
