a stupid idea articulated by French and Germans, which per se shows their support for Gordon Brown's help create purchase power in developing countries:

<<"The financing of this (IFF-Pilot) could be a tax on kerosene.>> Those idiots are proprosing to tax aviation Kerosone when airtravel is collapsing all over the place!!!

<<French President Jacques Chirac appeared by video link to outline, with Gallic aplomb, his maniacal new plan to support the Third World with the proceeds of a new global tax on air tickets, kerosene and Swiss bank accounts (the latter noticeably failing to excite the home crowd).>>

They are not taking this serious, it looks like CHina, Brazil and India will have to do the job!!!
