another bloody ludicrous Blairite plan.Its about time the number of
politicians on the payroll was drastically reduced to stop these denials
of
freedom and make the buggers concentrate on delivering services.Their
primary purpose and one which they seem incapable of delivering at all.

If the money went back into fishing I would not have such an issue.

How would it do that? I''d rather have things kept as the are. Next
stage would be licence to dig your own bait, a "worm-tax". After that
it might be bag limits for sea fish (their argument is stock
preservation, as if sea anglers have any impact on stocks)

Sadly
even if the money collected did go back into fishing it would be full of
beauraucratic bull it would be unworkable.

Most of the money would go into administering itself.


Bottom line why does Blair feel the need for a Sea Angling licence? My guess
is lets tax the working class more as in this years budget. My how labour
have become tory in just a few years.
