Trouble is it gives the sods ideas!  ;D

My Mrs said to me this morning, "What's this bedroom tax the news is full of?"
I said, "The government wants to tax sex!"
Without a pause she says, "Well I'll be due a big rebate then!"  ???

It may be an April fool but it will happen. It will be sold to us as being just a fraction of a percent of our bill and to improve infrastructure. Once we are used to it they begin increasing the percentage year on year and rather than going on something to our benefit it goes into the big black hole of government.
