Comments on: Harry Potter and the Hypocritical Donation http://archive.sharpesopinion.co.uk/2008/09/harry-potter-and-the-hypocritical-donation/ The Weblog of Stuart Sharpe Sat, 02 Jan 2010 00:29:58 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Tizzy http://archive.sharpesopinion.co.uk/2008/09/harry-potter-and-the-hypocritical-donation/#comment-274 Tizzy Sun, 21 Sep 2008 20:38:32 +0000 http://stuartsharpe.co.uk/?p=706#comment-274 I'm a tad fed up of awarding Medals for Motherhood and I'm certainly not impressed with those who feel it's OK to attempt to politically sway the minds of their customers, especially when her main readers are under 18yo's. Personally, I believe DC's touted £20 tax allowance for married couples is not about neutralising the disincentive of couples living apart. It bothers me that 'marriage' is wedded to the proposal. The reasons I married the current Mr Tizzy are more due to the various laws on pensions and inheritance tax, but mainly the rights on his body and body parts at the point of death. If this disgusts your readers, I suggest they read up on the benefits of common law partnerships - there aren't any worth mentioning, but definitley some against.
