    It remains to be seen how all this will work in practice, once official approval is given to the UK Housewive's Salary Scheme. Which Government Department will be reponsible for administrating the whole loopy affair? Not the Home Office, surely, altough the name sort of fits doesn't it? They have enough on their plate already coping with the mayhem being caused by the rampant, boozed up, drugged up feral youth of Britain - already the direct result of the breakdown in family life bought about by, and the responsibility of, the Feminist Movement and their dogmatic agenda. I don't think the lovely Jacquie Spliff (oops...sorry, Smith) could handle this additional burden to be honest with you. Perhaps they will set up a separate Govenment Department to deal with this new Scheme - probably directly linked to the Department of Work and Pensions and Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs Department. The housewives will, of course, have to pay tax on their "income" - someone will have to pay for all the funding to this very worthy cause. No doubt the plan will be to place this additional tax burden onto the shoulders of the hardworking husbands or partners of these housewives. In the case of single mothers no prizes for guessing where this extra finance will come from - right first time - the taxpayers who already pay this group via the social welfare benefits system.

    Twenty nine thousand quid per annum? Across the board, or will it vary depending on "performance"? Will all these housewives have to fill in worksheets as they go along their merry way keeping home and hearth and kiddywinkies together in harmony? Will they have to acount for all their tea breaks and all the other breaks I mentioned in an earlier post? Will deductions for these "slack periods" be permitted? Maybe they will be given some kind of hand held computers to note down how long they took to go the rounds at Tesco, Sainsbury's, Waitrose, Morrisons or wherever, or how long it took to ferry the kids to and from school, and how long it took them to perform the amazing manoeuvres most of them will take to park their cars.

    It really should be all great fun, shouldn't it, when it happens.

    Talking about single mothers - this week we had the case of this 21 years old single mother in Lancashire, or some such place, who already has two kids by two separate guys.. She prefers to live alone with her sprogs (now there's a surprise) - and all at the expense of the British taxpayers - now there's another surprise. To live alone she needs a home - provided by, surprise, surprise, the local authority, which in turn is funded by me and all the other heavily burdened taxpayers of the good old UK, along with all her income and whole aray of other social welfare benefits to which, surprise, surprise, she knows full well all are her her rights and entitlements under the very generous munificence of this wacky Government. Her "responsibilities" (whatever they may be) are very nebulous, to say the least. What SHE wants SHE gets.

    Well, this woman got a house - free at the point of issue, with all running costs paid for by, surprise, surprise, the rest of us. The local council gave her the key to the house, but she took one look round this house and handed the key right back, saying that it was "not up to her high standards". Apparently it need decorating, inside and out, and the garden was a "mess". She would only move in when all the required improvements had been completed!

    Isn't that just wonderful?

    As for all the paid housewives - who will they turn to when they demand a pay rise? Don't tell me - us!

    You mean to say you haven't got a Department of Womens Affairs over there?
    Your tax must be so low!

    We have one of the cleanest houses that I know, and this is what gets my goat, there seems to be a hidden message in that article, and it seems to say that men don't do enough around the house, hence the value of women's work.
    I am not afraid of using the vacuum cleaner or scrubbing the bath out or the toilet, it is a team effort.
    Just think about that article for a second, who is being put down here?

    I hear ya Mike. My dad and his brother are clean freaks, put my mum to shame.

    Is the article encouraging men to shun marriage, and hire housekeepers and prostitutes instead?

    As ooftus goofus says, being a housewife in the modern West is the easiest it's ever been in the history of our species.

    I will say this, my partner and I have no kids, although we are trying.
    We pass like ships in the night, when you consider my partner works as an Ambulance Officer on night shift, she is often gone before I get home from work.
    The only time we see each other is during the weekend.

    You are right, Mike. They are greatly over-valuing female work, and completely ignoring the work that MEN do around the house.

    Its the usual feminist message Women--> matter

    Men --> Don't matter
