So is Murdoch getting his own back on the tories after Cameron tried to distance himeslf from all of his and Ruperts mutual friends when the criminal inquiry went ahead into newscorp?

Ah come on, that only affects the poor buggers that are mortgaged up to the eyeballs and running scared.
Its a "volutary" self registration scheme to pay a bit of money while the pillocks try and get themselves together to make a database of people who have registered so they can work out how much to take off them.

I wouldn't have a problem with that tax if wasn't for something I had already been stung for.
But hey I am all for giving the govt. a break I ain't yet joining the crowd succesfully suing the government for their money back

Here in South Australia the price is $1.50 per litre!! We live in the country and travel 120km return to work each day, so this is really cutting into our wages!

That is very cheap by European standards. Here in Finland one litre of gasoline costs around US$2.25 - US$2.50

Cameron has announced that he will clamp down on illegal "donations" to the party to draw a line under the continuing flood of allegations of corruption....
if someone will give him a quarter of a million as a bribe to do so.
