I wouldn't marry anybody for the sake of £4,000 per year


So give us a ball park figure to work on. :mrgreen:


The purpose of the comment was merely to say that as a tax incentive £4,000 wouldn't work for me. Personally I don't think I'm the marrying kind. Also if it takes somebody an incentive of money before they are prepared to make the committment of marriage then perhaps they shouldn't be getting married anyway :wink:


Acording to your post on another topic £600,000 would do the trick. Let me check my lottery numbers and get back to you. :wink:

It's the bit where he was mumbling something about being faced with these people and it being a disaster :lol:

I actually said I would have to start looking for a half dead rich man :D Apart from that I don't think Mrs Grandad would give you up that easily, it would end up costing you more than twice that as you would have to buy off both of us :wink:

Well my lottery numbers didn't come up anyway. I still satisfy the half dead criteria though. :mrgreen:

Maybe Sue should form the bigot party, standing up for the bigoted everywhere.

Next week's election is the most important our country has faced for many, many years.

We've got an enormous task on our hands - but this election won't be decided until the votes are cast. Millions of people have not made up their minds yet.

Watch this video to see what you can do about it:



Watch the video. You can make the difference.

The threat we'd face under the Tories is huge - catastrophic job losses and savage cuts to the services we rely on. We mustn't have selective amnesia about the past and how badly working people were treated by the Tories.

I know that sometimes there's been frustrations with our own party, Labour, but let's not kid ourselves that disappointment has anything on the disaster that will unfold if Cameron's team come to power.

Right now, it's crucial that we don't just snipe from the sidelines - but that we get out and campaign for a fourth term for Labour. Because it's union members who will suffer under the Tories:

http://www.unionstogether.org.uk/MakeTheDifference

All of our unions have worked really hard for Labour. We've made contact with people in our workplaces and communities across the country - and when we talk to people, it makes a difference.

It's not too late to make a difference. I've spent time hitting the phone banks, and I've seen undecided voters suddenly realise the difference between Labour and the Tories, and wake up to the fact that a vote for the Liberals is a vote to let the Tories in by the back door. And I know that it's only by talking to people about why this election matters that we can cut through the cynicism and distrust in politics.

When we make the time to talk to people, they start to see the real difference that Labour has made since 1997, and realise what's at stake: the minimum wage, tax credits, investment in our schools and other frontline public services, and support for jobs throughout the economic recovery.

It's crucial that - in this last week - we get busy on the doorsteps and knockers, and vote in a Labour government for a fourth term, because the alternative doesn't bear thinking about.

Let's get out there and make that difference,

Tony Woodley
Chair of Unions Together
Joint General Secretary, Unite the Union
