Klass Act

 

 

 

 

When you consider how ready the BBC is to plaster the thoughts of Chairman Brand all over the airwaves when he really hasn’t got anything of any originality or coherence to say it is surprising that when the Labour leader and his mansion tax policy is pretty much destroyed by another ‘celebrity’ we don’t hear a thing about it on the BBC….all the more surprising as the mansion tax is one of Miliband’s major policies designed of course to show how he is taking from the rich to give to the poor…might have thought the BBC would show an interest especially as Myleene Klass is said to have done a ‘Paxman’…perhaps she could get a place on Newsnight.

From the Telegraph:

Singer Myleene Klass ‘wipes the floor’ with Ed Miliband over mansion tax

Miss Klass, a former singer with pop group Hear’Say and TV presenter, joined business leaders, celebrities and politicians in her condemnation of Labour’s pledge to impose a tax on homes worth more than £2 million, and tore into Mr Miliband on ITV’s The Agenda on Monday night.

The singer told the Labour leader: “For me, it’s so disturbing – the name in its own right: ‘mansion tax’. Immediately you conjure up an image of these Barbie-esque houses, but in London, which is where 80 per cent of the people who will be paying this tax actually live, have you seen what that amount of money can get you? It’s like a garage.

“When you do look at the people who will be suffering this tax, it’s true a lot of them are grannies who have had these houses in their families for a long, long time.

“The people who are the super-super rich buying their houses for £140 million, this is not necessarily going to affect them because they’ve got their tax rebates and amazing accountants. It’s going to be the little grannies who have lived in those houses for years and years.”

“You may as well just tax me on this glass of water. You can’t just point at things and tax them.

Mr Miliband replied: “I totally understand that people don’t like paying more in tax. The values of my government are going to be different to the values of this government.”

 

No, haven’t heard a peep out of the BBC on the radio…despite Klass going into action on ITV last night…and nothing on the website…however even the lefty Mirror isn’t hiding this…..

    We needn’t be informed of Klass’s views by the BBC because they would not be good for our education.

    It’s all in the ‘royal’ charter.

    It looks like we won’t be seeing much of Klass on the BBC in the future if the past is anything to go on. The one thing that is certain to make you a non person is disagreeing with the Dear Leader.

    I have a new found admiration for ITV – can you imagine the stuck up arse getting this kind of treatment on the BBC? Brilliant to see regular people simply pissed off with his usual shite.

    Doubt that Myleene Klass will be receiving any enployment from the BBC any time soon…She’s now an enemy of the people and must be ignored.

    “You can’t just point at things and tax them.”
    In one short sentence a minor pop-star has summarised socialism. The two Eds should be reminded of these nine words at every opportunity.
    But not on the bBBC of course.

    I agree, that one sentence was absolutely genius!.

    She seems a smart cooky but the fact that a one-time “pop star” can flatten him shows how poor he is but it actually didn’t surprise me.

    This performance also shows that the nature of the beast just hasn’t changed and all Labour can think about(which Ms Klass pointed out) is tax, tax, tax and spend.

    As she said, you need to be more imaginative.

    How about cutting Government and Local Authority waste?.

    Even if Mad Ed raised £5 from this windfall tax (which he couldn’t), it would be used in the blink of an eye if used on the NHS and it’s too small for anyone there to notice it.

    I’m afraid it’s yet another un-thought out plan by Nasty Labour to clobber the wealth creators but will only hit people who cannot afford to pay it.

    So, Miss Klass has the looks, the talent (on her classical side) as well as personality. She now shows intelligence but she’ll soon have to be reprogrammed to say “I vote Labour” before getting back on the so-called BBC.

    Even Griff Rhys-Jones complained about the Masion Tax and promised to leave the country if Millionaireband was elected. And he had had impeccable lefty credentials, as far as I was aware, previously.

    Maybe the Labour Celebrity supporter bandwagon has lost a wheel or two on this issue.

    People seem obsessed that’s she’s a ‘pop star’. So what? Amazingly enough, being a pop star, minor or otherwise, does not exclude one from intelligent debate – unless you have a biased view that dictates that being pop/rock star means you have no intelligence or debating skills. If you go down that road then you’ll use the same kind of benchmark about most people in this country – and I would have thought that this one-sided attitude is something more akin to the BBC mindset, i.e. Left is good, Right is bad, etc.
