We're f****d because we let it happen. WERE f****d 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

With the recent rise on my meagre pit pension I will be paying more tax tax i begrudge paying when you see how the government spend it and if I had the opportunity with only a few years left to state pension age I would take a regular cash in hand job rather than getting rinsed with tax stoppages every month. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mackay 3,355 Posted November 15 Report Share Posted November 15 This is all intentional, simple as that. Council tax to go up, NI, and the cold weather allowance for pensioner to name but a few. Now I might be niave, but here's how to address things. Cop out of net zero, stop the boats, return illegals. Job done, is it just me?, or is it really that simple?, and if it is, why is it not being done?. As I said, got to be intentional. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
