How about Pershore High School? I hear it's quite handy, and available at an acceptable price.

It's a shame it's moving but, having organised an event at the Spa Centre in the past, it's not exactly a cheap place to book. Hopefully bands will continue to support the contest at it's new...

"Bringing the freshness back to Prestatyn"

Meh, if it took more than 5 seconds on google to poke holes in your argument I probably wouldn't bother.

Worzel's no fun on a night out - he starts singing show tunes and talking about his...

Ah yeah, but I don't have the energy to rip into the logic of the thing. It's like when people compare national debt to credit card debt, and public spending to shopping in Waitrose. It's unjustified...

Of course it makes a difference. "Look what this economics professor says about the tax system" is likely to have more impact than "This is why I think the tax system is bad". Why else would they...

It's always fun to fraudulently stick someone's name on your flawed logic to make it seem more credible.

Some of the logic in here reminds me of Dr Fox on that Brass Eye episode

"There's no real evidence for it, but it is scientific fact"

Haha "Huge mortgage"

Why not "Huge asset at massively knocked down rate"?

Of course we tax some people more than others. We have a progressive(ish) tax system for income tax. We tax those that consume more than others through VAT. We tax companies that damage the...

Can we at least be honest about the level of taxation. It's only 40% of any money OVER £325,000. If they take anything like 40% of your estate, you'd have to be leaving an amount that made £325,000...

I don't think that free trade would work when the tax environments of the two countries are so fundamentally different. Unless you can convince everyone to drop sales and export taxes.

And I buy...

Ah yes, the best way to deal with poverty is to stop poor people breeding. That way they'll all be dead in a few years.

Of course, you are allowed to leave your children as much as £325,000 completely tax free. That's plenty to keep them happy for many years to come, and the government aren't taking a penny! You add...

Only if they then spend 7 years on their death bed not dying. I don't think you really thought about that statement very well.

We need to tax tourists, because in our sales tax-free utopia, we suddenly become a massive draw to people from abroad looking for a bargain. Our economy currently relies fairly heavily on the tax...

You're not paying tax twice with inheritance tax. You pay tax on your earnings, and then your offspring pay tax on what they inherit. Why do they deserve to get a large amount of money tax free?

Ah sorry, I got excited when I saw "flat rate of tax" and failed to notice the accompanying Universal benefit. It sounds ok in principle, but it doesn't seem to take into account the varying needs of...

There are certain areas of tax "avoidance", including pension tax relief, that have a clear and tangible benefit to the UK economy. In the case of pension tax relief, it encourages people to fund...

It could quite easily make a bigger contribution to the country than the much lauded "crackdown on benefits cheats".

Strangely, when someone like Phillip Green avoids huge amounts of tax by doing...

You'd surely have at least 2 bands who had been promoted or relegated into that section with 11 points for the two years. If one of them wins, they beat you by a point. I can't work out a way this...

That sounds like a Noel Coward song.

Great to see it so well supported. I'm sure bands that missed out this time will get their entries in earlier next year!

Ha! That was quite a good one...

There's some interesting ideas there, but I'm not sure how many good ideas.

I'd be in favour of pre-drawing the contests. It goes along with most of my feelings about closed adjudication. The only...
