Robin Hood

[tdliverpool]

I am new to these forums (see thread 23/3/08 and with your help and advice i have been able to hold off the bailiffs for now, or at least till the Councils investigations are complete, and for that i thank you all.8)8)

This forum has opened my eyes with regard to Council Taxes, i have my problems but when i read what others are going through i am absolutely disgusted, and while reading these threads only one person comes to mind, albeit Archetypal English Folklore, and a certain gentleman who, armed only with a longbow and a bunch of merry men, fought, and eventually bested a tyrant who gravely abused his possition by appropriating land and possesions, levying exccesive taxation, and persecuting the poor.

These days, Stealth Taxes like Council Tax, and increased petrol prices, these hit the poorest the most, people on low earnings cannot live in this so called Modern Society, The Great late George Harrison got it spot on, ( TAXMAN 1966) 1st line, "let me tell you how it will be", last line, "and your working for no-one but me".

As the roll Robin played is now reversed, perhaps the title should have been reversed also - 'Hood Robin' (Robbing).
