MPs back personal carbon credits The government should go ahead with a system of personal "carbon credits" to meet emissions targets, MPs have said. The Environmental Audit Committee said the scheme would be more effective than taxes for cutting carbon emissions. Under the scheme people would be given an annual carbon limit for fuel and energy use - which they could exceed by buying credits from those who use less. Ministers said there were practical drawbacks to the proposal but they were looking at other initiatives. 'No barrier' The committee's report criticised the government for shelving the proposal following a preliminary study. The MPs admitted members of the public were likely to be opposed to the move, but urged the government to be "courageous". Their report said: "Persuading the public depends on perceptions of the government's own commitment to reducing emissions, and of the priority given to climate change in its own decision making." http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7419724.stmWhen you support these crazy claims by the government that we have caused the earth to heat up when its the sun doing this and all the planets near us are heating up then you will have to pay for it literally.

This government is really pissing me off then again I know its gonna go Tories in 2 years time and god forbid it gets any worse.
Jobless UK Youths To Be Put Into Camps· Automatic referrals if out of work for three months · Companies and voluntary groups to run centresA future Conservative government will bring in "boot camps" for unemployed young people aged between 18 and 21 who refuse to take a job, Chris Grayling, the party's welfare spokesman, will say tomorrow.In a significant hardening of Conservative policy towards welfare claimants, he will announce the abolition of benefit payments for any able-bodied person under 21 who is out of work for more than three months and who refuses to go on a compulsory community service programme or a "boot camp" training course aimed at improving their work discipline and giving them basic skills to get a job.Grayling plans to ask private sector companies and voluntary organisations to run the intensive training centres - with the £5,000 it costs to support a single person on the dole being offered to the company or voluntary group once the person has been in work for one year. Individuals will be expected to report to the centre every day for an intensive training programme.Some private companies - notably the Australian firm Work Directions - have successfully bid for business from Labour on a " bonus basis" to get the disabled back to work.http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2008/ma...vatives.welfareIt dont matter whether its Labour or Conservatives they both carry out the plans for a New World Order.
