Car Tax Holder by Johnny Beirne
Johnny Beirne took this picture of an enlightened car tax disc holder for a car in the UK. The message on the geared at local council officials who might be checking to see if the car is taxed.
Inspired by this, I wonder if we can come up with a new No Nonsense insurance disc holder?
The target audience would clearly be An Garda Síochána, checking to see if your car is fully insured. We need to be careful here as we don’t want to get on the wrong side of the law!
So here’s my suggestion “Yes I’ve paid my insurance. Now go stop that gobs****e in the bus lane.” (Apologies for the expletive but it probably needs it.)
So here’s the deal: help us come up with a slogan for a No Nonsense insurance disc holder and we’ll make sure there is a really worthwhile prize for the best suggestion. All suggestions for a suitable prize are also welcome.
Complete the sentence to win: “Yes I’ve paid my insurance. Now…”

hmmmm how about “Yes, I’ve paid my Insurance. Now get back to project no-flow”
A sentiment expressed often by my sister while stuck at a green traffic light waiting for a Guard to decide it’s her turn to go.

[...] No Nonsense want the public to design their next tax disc holder. Here’s my suggestion: Here’s my tax disc, now fuck off back to leaking case details to Paul Williams. [...]

A person putting up a tax disc wants to project themselves as a person who complies with and support the law. Even if this is not your personal position, I would strongly advise that you project an upbeat message in your dealings with An Garda Siochana, however casual. I would seriously consider ‘Help the Garda keep the roads safe’. On the inside of the tax disc would be ‘The Garda work day and night to keep Irish roads safe. Help them do their job by driving carefully. Always make sure you are properly insured and never ever drive after drinking. Nononsense.ie insurance brokers contributes one euro to the Garda Benevolent Fund for every policy sold.

Thanks Antoin. Yes, we should certainly advocate support for our friends in An Garda Síochána. We’re also hoping that they have a sense of humour…
