IN 2001, the break down might have been something like:

Income tax: 1810
Bribes to get opposition members to support government legislation: 750
Bribes to get backbench Labour party members to support government legislation: 850
Programmes to reduce to an acceptable level the numbers of people starving to death in the northeast: 2
Scottish Parliament extra spending to counter delays: 200
Queen: -650

That sort of thing?

(Yes, the Queen actually brought in a massive profit that year.)
