Just the tax rape of pension funds alone was an absolute scandal. This governemt is the most left wing tax taking governement of all time. Taxing the super rich on their wealth elsewhere wouldnt make a bit of differewnce, its politics of envy, it would make bugger all difference to the tax take of the lower earners. So we have just endured the highest total tax take ever and are our services better... are they fuck. People think 20% and 40% bullshit... NI anyone? its more like 30% and 50% and now 60% plus VAT plus fuel tax plus stamp duty plus capital gains tax plus council tax plus etc etc etc Here is an example for you, the government just introduced a tax on pension contribution for the high earners (150kplus) guess what the effect of that is... to reduce the tax take of the state by £3bn... so everyone LOSES. Fucking idiots. |
that last part if true sounds stupid, like ive said, I cant stand Labour either
okay, what would you change about the tax system then? you seem to know more about it than I do?
also, how would you improve how the public services are funded?
