Lib Dems offer tax cuts for sex

Or something.

Perhaps I'm not reading it right, but it appears the Liberal Democrats are suggesting that British taxpaying subjects be given income tax breaks for engaging in strenuous physical activity, like the horizontal tango.

In the immortal jargon of some Liberal Democrat at his party's annual conference:

"You have got to find a way to incentivise better health.

"The scheme has to be practical and has to work in disadvantaged areas too.

"You could, for instance, have a card which you swipe whenever you take part in regular screenings or when you take part in physical exercise."
Of course, using words like "incentivise" cannot hide the reality of their sordid sex schemes. Under a Liberal Democrat government*, after taking part in a nookie session, we would be forced to swipe our cards through a special machine on the bedside table, in the hope of earning extra points.

Sounds like a winning strategy to me. It also sounds just like those establishments my co-blogger is always frequenting and telling me about in unnecessary detail.

*Ha!

The phrase 'please enter your pin' springs to mind.
