Say hello (and goodbye) to the Internet.
The latest political chew-toy, since all the perennial ones are too ripped up to save.
Please meddle with me, regulate me, bury me under bureaucracy until I'm unrecognisable and unusable.

Why the hell can't they leave anything alone?!! :mad:

Pie-throwing contest... Target: Gorden Brown?

Re: Finally We All Might Get Good Internet?
 

Now that I would happily pay to do on condition I can stick something either sharp or seriously unpleasant in the pie.

As far as costs go you guys do remember that 50p/month phone line tax that was discussed right? This is a reannouncement of that, just electioneering nothing more.
