The results to last week's Fun Online Poll were as follows:
What is the craziest idea to emanate from the Labour Party conference?
Spending 4G licence money on propping up house prices - 54 votes
People have forgotten everything before 2010 - 33 votes
One Nation Under Ed's Groove - 22 votes
Means testing Universal Benefits - 18 votes
Replacing Ofgem with a "tough new regulator" - 8 votes
Introducing a "Technical Baccalaureate" - 6 votes
So "Spending 4G licence money on propping up house prices" will go through into the final round, together with the most crackpot idea from the Lib Dem conference, which was "Use your pension fund as a mortgage deposit" and whichever idea floats to the surface of this week's Tory Party conference.
-------------------------------------------
The Tories have got off to a flying start: they are going to eliminate the deficit, but not by reducing spending - no, they will do this by increasing taxes on "the rich" (Wot? Having reduced the top rate of tax slightly and ruled out any sort of Mansion Tax..?); freezing Council Tax; indexing welfare payments with wages growth not price inflation (Wot? Wages normally rise slightly faster than prices, so they'd have to change this back again in a couple of years.) and maybe taking away Peter Stringfellow's bus pass.
Please leave your suggestions in the comments here or in the comments to this post, we'll then have the Grand Final next week.
