He'd certainly transform the economy.... Labour keep on about taxing the highest earners and large companies to pay for their nationalisation and other high spend policies. Result of the higher taxation is actually less tax revenue, as high earners take more tax mitigation measures, or go non-domiciled, companies relocate their HQ, etc. Bloody disaster awaits!
Not disagreeing but under the previous Labour government I felt that bit richer, even as a scumbag contractor (who apparently survive on film stars wages) I have felt the squeeze with Tories in power
Isn't that the normal cycle though, Labour spend and get the country in debt, Torys come along and do the dirty work, getting the country back on its feet and the finances straight, then Labour get back in and same cycle, debt and more debt.
your possibly feeling the sqeeze from the disproportinate amount of PFI's we have up here too. PFI's imposed on us by labour. while sending back 1.5bill of underspend during their 7years of holyrood leadership because they couldnt think what to spend it on. PFI's that take half of all our councill tax recepts.
Nice to see Steptoe and his Labour party are getting a good twatting on this particular poll. In other polls too apparently. Hope Bojo gets off his arse and maintains the momentum. Unlike the drip TM last time out.
We are in fvckin debt now and the lying, theiving, scumbag Tories haven't spent fvck all, ask them what they have done with it all !
I'm talking selfishly of the money in my pocket, seems taxes (stealth especially) keep going up and any personal benefits disappearing
Correct, you said despise, which is worse. “Despise" is a stronger word than "hate". ... In other words, when you hatesomeone, you dislike the individual intensely, but when you "despise" him, you not only dislike him, but you also look down on him. So, when you despise someone, you consider him being beneath you; you may think that the individual is worthless.
I know what you are saying but it's more the squeeze on my pocket, council tax hasn't gone up for us (significantly) but more income gets diverted to taxes (not just the ScotGov extra tax which is insignificant) but we contractors (I don't expect any sympathy ) are paying more and more tax to HMRC without getting any increases for years. If I thought that extra tax money was going some way to help society I'd be fine with it but services are not improving so where is the cash going - as we have 110% employment according to the Tories?
We should have a minute of silence and quiet reflection at 11:00 pm tonight when we were due to Leave.
yip, harry. me too if i feel i am getting value for money. i will happily pay more in those curcumstances. while our services are not necceserry improving. i dont think they are deteiriating up here in any noticable way to me either. which aint bad concidering our partial refund has droped by 18bill since 2009.
