Ah the personal attack.

Identify the tax increases on working people.

Not at the moment no. Snd no there have been no tax increases for working people, as per the Labour Manifesto. And by the way, average worker losing money but you don’t want to talk about minimum wage increases….

But you can’t actually say what taxes have risen for working people. I wonder why that is?

You have a good point. During the energy crisis Labour did suggest windfall taxes on energy companies. The Tories chose to protect energy windfall profits with tax funded subsidies to consumers. EDL, who you mention, were subject to price controls in their home county. So while I don’t know when Labour will tax windfall profits, I fully expect t them to do so if windfall profits are made at cost to consumers.

I thought you’d flounced?!

They’re mythical, they don’t exist. Doh!

Yet more references to mythical taxes.

Same question for you, point out the tax increase for n working people.

Yes, he’s making a prediction. it’s an opinion. And it’s not a tax.

No, taxes are detailed in the budget, the definition of taxes is defined in the tax laws.

James is playing fast and loose with the meaning the word ‘tax’.

And if it doesn’t you’ll hope that in the interim 6 months we’ve all forgotten your predictions, which I expect t you’ll only replace with more.

Yep some taxes went up, this thread is discussing one of them. But taxes on working people did not go up. Was that a flounce I wonder?

Can you point out which part is an increase in tax on working people?

Enough to not fall for claims of tax increases that don’t exist on working people.

You obviously missed the budget.

Labour promised not to raise taxes for working people. Taxes have not been raised for working people.

You don’t need to apologize for disappointing, I’m sure you do your best, that’s all anyone can ask.

I understand the industry you work in is on the receiving end of the increase in the minimum wage. I hope it provides you that little extra that makes all the difference.

And in doing so jacking up director renumeration.

You’ve claimed an outcome, that hasn’t happened. As you’ve run a business, but never tell us what business, you might not know, more money in the pockets of your customers means more business for business owners.

Let’s make a distinction. Predictions of outcomes from a rightwing mouthpiece are not actual outcomes. We know the budget increased taxes on the very rich, the news papers and media they own hasn’t stopped bleating about it. Why those who are themselves not subject to these taxes are bleating about it is a mystery, well apart from they are parroting what those same newspapers and media are telling the to parrot.

Your outrage over taxes you aren’t paying is an odd thing. You also seem to have missed the fact ‘trickle down’ economics doesn’t ‘trickle down’. Increasing the incomes of people on low incomes does grow the economy, they spend their money and do not stuff it off shore.

Perhaps Labour should reduce the minimum wage and slash the wages of people working in the public sector to below the tax threshold. They could then claim to have reduced taxes on working people.
