Like a novel virus that predominantly killed that demographic. Ah well, I can but dream.... Now about a wealth tax payable by everybody including businesses if they have a million in dead money sitting in accounts? Or a half on one percent on every financial transaction over a million pounds? The revenue raised would be in multi billions and is pain free for everybody. Remember reading such taxes could have paid for the 2008 crash.Instead they made us pay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I own a house so price crash would likely cost me money but we need a drastic revaluation if the next generation are going to have any hope of buying before their parents die and leave them a property. Perhaps we could stop letting millions of people into the country if we want housing for our children. Tories incompetent on immigration and a Labour alternative that makes no secret of the fact they want even more. Shit state to be in 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Look, I don't really care, politics is just another force of nature to me these days, just part of the environment, like the weather. However, I do find it interesting to study. So, your view, if factual, is a nice little snippet but do you not think it has any consequences? 100% agree with the wrongs of 2008 fyi.

Now this conversation is really going to go to Kansas !……so, here we go…..lol I think the bible got it spot on, 10% for everyone regardless !…..that’s it and that’s all, it’s fair. Coming away from biblical references (phew!!) for a second…..I think we are in a trap where our answer to government is always more government ! Let’s not create different or more taxes and rules, let’s start getting rid of the ones we have…..give people the means to thrive and they will. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lost one of their numbers once and took me about a month to find him because he was having a paranoid episode and went fully off grid. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
