I think one problem is that there are far too many taxes!
If there was ONE tax, say income tax, that was higher, and then all road tax, council tax, value added tax, fuel, alcohol & tobacco taxes, all of that was just dropped.

You'd get less in your wage packet, but goods become cheaper, services become cheaper, you don't have to pay the council - so it should even itself out.
IR would then apportion a certain %age to central government funds, and split the rest between local councils based on population per electral register.

Just an idea... throwing it to the debate.

I like the straggly wire effect. It'd probably become really annoying in sequential art, but as a stand alone picture I think it looks good.

Yes, she certainly doesn't owe charities anything...

It's probably worth pointing out that she wrote two books for Comic Relief 2001.
They must have sold by the shedload, with 'Pottermania' being at a high at the time.

I hope this isn't going to delve into some bizarre pissing contest, but...

It's always a difficult one to call. I prefer to keep any donations I make annonymous werever possible. I prefer not to tell others about what I give - because charity is about helping others, not showing people how generous & kind you are.
However - if showing others how generous you are inspires them to help charities more, then surely it's a good thing?


Also - use the link below whenever you're internet shopping. They have a selection of charities and a selection of internet shops. Pick & choose, a the shops gives a percentage of your payment to the charity you select. Doesn't cost you anything, but you're helping everytime you buy from Amazon or order a Dominos pizza online.

I've seen two Dredd T's in Forbidden Planet (Shaftesbury Avenue, London)

One of Dredd by Flint - the front on view from the mug -

It's probably either/or!  The department would be called "Q".  "Q Department" and "Department Q" would therefore be 'slang' names, because just "Q" would sound strange.

I like the second homepage version, but prefer the title logo from v1 - the dripping blood font does look kinda naff.

You should also think about getting it put on the 2000AD Web-ring group.
That means finding space to put this banner at the bottom:

Would you need me to email you the files, or can you just copy them up from the web?

All the files are here - http://homepage.ntlworld.com/kathan/zenith/

Good work! I was vaguely thinking of doing that myself at some point.

Just stick on some scans of the characters, and wrap it up in html & you've got the beginnings of a Cab Inc fansite there.
