    UK guys

    just a funny little question, but like what the deal with the 2P piece? It's like the most worthless thing ever

    on a side note, whats with the 17.5% VAT tax, aren't there ANY Conservitives over there anymore?

    its like the £2 coin you dont think you'll ever need it but you do.

    when you least expect it......MWA-HAHAHAHAHAHHA!.

    plus they add up to ten easier than pennies

    and on this note why the dollar bill?, you can carry more pound coins and they dont turn to mush in water.

    because every time they put out a dollar coin, no one ever uses them and they get discontinued

    In that case - why the 1 pence coin, lol aka "the penny". You'd be surprised how usefull a 2 pence is, how else would you play "table football" aka "shove ha'penny" (you use a 2p for that). Also, if it wasn't for the 2p coin, the economies of Margate, Great Yarmouth, Blackpool and all other tacky seaside towns would crumble. Without the 2p piece those little money-shoving machine things with sh*t prizes would be empty, there'd be no 2p slot machines, there'd be nothing for hobos / scavvy teenagers to pick up off the street to help fuel their habits, lol.

    As for 17.5% VAT - damn straight - tax in this country is a f*cking joke ... but it's not in the least bit funny, thank Darth "I'm a MASSIVE Twat" Brown for that, he's taxed this country into an early grave, typical really of the greedy, socialist wankers that are behind the Labour gubment.

    As for a Conservative government (who are the only people that can - and do - effectively oppose the Labour party - we're essentially a two party system, despite the (at least 3) additional parties that just suck up votes), there hasn't been a Conservative government since 1997 when Labour took over and promised a paradise ... hmmm ... it's far from that, that's for sure. The sooner they get back in the better, and then we can fix this bloody country.

    One of the main reasons behind the need for all the tax and stealth taxes Darth Brown has put in place? All the red-tape jockey civil servants whose jobs were created ONLY to buy votes and to keep them secure, that's why. Also just the general haemoraging of money by Labour, who - when it comes to finance - have the financial skills of a toddler sitting in a nappy full of sh*t.

    *sigh*

    Rant over...
