Not very inspiring from a party that's so far ahead in the polls. If they can't turn things around in five years, why vote for them?

The issue is she may of declared it as her primary residence to evade capital gains tax when she was living somewhere else. This issue is growing. Looks like she may have evaded paying tax of around £3000. That's the sort of thing the Tories do isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very noble, Neil. I still pay tax and would be delighted to pay more tax if the government were spending it wisely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy to pay required taxes, the income I have is not taxable (pip is tax free my accountant said) not quite true for all of my income now I think about it (but that part is well under the income tax threshold). My NI stamps are (I believe) paid via my UC claim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The country is in such a bad state that it will take Labour time to turn it around especially if Hunt wrecks the country further with big tax cuts next month.

Maybe Reeves won't support any tax cuts, which is exactly what Hunt will want I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are similarities with how he got the leadership after a bad defeat and how he is criticised for being modest. We just need the radical transformibg government when he wins.

steviewevie Posted February 29 Report Share Posted February 29 I mean it is quite likely that a Tory govt after WW2 would have set up NHS, or something similar, and welfare state..Beveridge report and all that. I guess most radical thing now could be GB Energy and whatever comes from that (if anything). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real radical stuff isnt noticed by the likes of Owen Jones because they don't rely on them. The short NHS waiting times, the Sure Start centres anf the tax credits from the lBlair / Brown years. All dismissed because Iraq and now Gaza are easy to protest. and feel good about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
