Fucking disgusting considering soldier are being sent to Afghan without sufficient equipment! When i was deployed on tour during my time in The Black Watch, i was sent away without the rear plate of my body armour for the first 4 weeks.

I am not that happy about it. BUT it does have good points:

UK Computer companies are getting the cash

Microsoft have put alot of cash into it as well so its not fully our cost

Tbh its a shocking idea that yet again encourages people at the lower end of the social spectrum not to go out and get jobs. It's really not sending the right message out to the kids of today is it.

The current government makes me laugh, they go on about giving laptops to poor families and free broadband acces. Yet when the Torys pop up and say they'll give tax breaks to married couples then thats 'social engineering'.

Come on now seriously, tax breaks for married couples is gonna have a far more positive outcome than giving chavs laptops.
