  1. Same question for you, point out the tax increase for n working people.
  2. Yes, he’s making a prediction. it’s an opinion. And it’s not a tax.
  3. No, taxes are detailed in the budget, the definition of taxes is defined in the tax laws.
  4. James is playing fast and loose with the meaning the word ‘tax’.
  5. 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.
  6. 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?
  7. Can you point out which part is an increase in tax on working people?
  8. Enough to not fall for claims of tax increases that don’t exist on working people.
  9. Labour promised not to raise taxes for working people. Taxes have not been raised for working people.
  10. You don’t need to apologize for disappointing, I’m sure you do your best, that’s all anyone can ask.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. Oh hell. People earning money over the tax threshold pay taxes in their incomes over the tax threshold. These people’s taxes haven’t increased, their incomes have increased to the point where they get to pay a little bit of tax but are overall better off. Much better to keep them poor for their own good eh?!
  17. Just incase the rise in the minimum wages pushes them over the threshold where they can afford to eat, and keep a roof over their heads.
  18. Precisely, no promise not to raise taxes. A promise not to raise taxes on working people was made and has been kept.
  19. Millions of people in the UK are paying significantly higher mortgage interest as a direct result of Tory ineptitude, a Tory budget that pushed the U.K. economy into otherwise unnecessary interest hikes. Tory PM Truss buried the lie of Tory fiscal responsibility.
  20. Oh the keep the poor in poverty for their own good argument.
  21. I doubt he was talking about people at the very bottom of the pay heap, those in need of Government subsidies to meet their living costs. Subsidies paid out of taxes that are actually subsidizing businesses paying low wages.
  22. Surely that depends upon how much energy consumer were using while in receipt of subsidies.
