I have seen this petition before.
It is poorly worded and it's basic premise is flawed

Wow.

Lets NOT draw attention to the emissions levels from my VFR please. It costs enough to put fuel in it without being taxed at the same level as a Range Rover.

Putting it another way. I own a vehicle which is making well over 400bhp/ton, will do over 150mph, returns in the region of 35mpg and I only pay £75 road tax.

Another petition to show just how few people are bothered enough to sign it.

It's more likely to get tax rates raised than lowered.

That. Any idiot can start one of these bearly liturut petishuns, and sadly many of them do.

If you don't have MCN, MAG and the BMF backing it, you're doing harm rather than good.

Even if it reaches 100,000 (and it won't, without the aforementioned patronage), that makes it eligible for consideration for debate. That and nothing else.

Good luck with the petition

While it makes sense and would be rather nice, it'll never happen due to the amount of money it'd lose them. That and why would anyone make life easier for kitten killers?

Thank you so much, I have enjoyed making you work for your enjoyment, it's so hard to make so many mistakes.
Really enjoyed it, thank you and "goodbuy" for now

That's not how it reads when I'm actually working at taking the piss out of someone. Unfortunately, my magnum opus was deleted some time ago, which is a shame.

However, I fail to believe that you're intentionally mistyping so much: having read many of your posts in the past and (to my great surprise) suppressed the desire to edit them with an orbital weapons platform, I find myself thinking of you as an oxygen thief.

I feel your inter-personal relationships are better served by channelling all that OCD energy into fabricating fantastic, wee, electronic gadgets than by trying to act as a human spelling and grammar check for the internet.

Aye, but my build threads don't quite fully convey the 'cantankerous shite' image that I'm trying to put across here.

This complete spazz has done this before. He corrected a persons grammar, taking the moral high ground, when in truth he is a fully fledged tard.

You're not funny.
