Taxpayers Alliance   
The Taxpayers' Alliance is a non-partisan and non-political organisation 
that campaigns for efficient taxation.  By consequence, it also 
campaigns for an efficient public sector.

By "efficient taxation", the TPA wants lower taxes to protect public 
services from the wasteful largesse of ego-driven politicians and 
empire-building civil servants/public bureaucracies.

The TPA has recently started a recruitment campaign for local members. 
The objective of each local group is largely down to the group.

If you want to join in the fun of scrutinising your local council(s) and 
  making their lives merry hell by forcing them to explain why they 
waste *your* money, please get in touch with the TPA on 
http://www.taxpayersalliance.com .

The TPA also represents other pressure groups with a similar dim view on 
  governmental self-importance and self-aggrandisement.  It also liases 
with its peers overseas.

The message is this: government levels of public spending are a direct 
and proportionate threat to a citizen's ability to survive.  A 
politician will waste your money on all manner of short-term publicity 
stunts or big, dodgy deals (plus the occasional war).  Would you?  Can 
you think of better ways of using your money?  Can you think of better 
ways of controlling public money?  Can you think of better ways of 
trusting the state to do what it needs for all of us (not just the 
occasional "victim" group), without treating its taxpaying customers 
like dirt?  If so, why have we put up with it all for so long?  Do 
politicans really care?

Why trust politicians with *your* money?

Does this mean a flat-tax ?
