Who nicked the Taxpayers' dosh..?

[sinkov]

Corbyn & McDonnell will tax the top 5% until their pips squeak,

No they won't BT, the top 5% will move their wealth beyond the clutches of the deadly duo long before their pips squeak, taking around £50 billion of tax receipts with them. It's thinking like that the keeps the Tories in business, they might lose the next election but why worry, they KNOW they'll walk the next one and have to sort the mess out again.

Where did you read anything about shoving Corporation Tax up massively?

An old Labour trick of Wilson & Callaghan was to bring Corporation Tax down for those Companies who were prepared to invest in plant and machinery.

I believe that is what we should do now. I might be part of the "Lunatic Left" fringe you all seem to despise so much but one thing none of us can deny is the true entrepreneurial spirit of the majority of honest, hardworking British businessmen.

I run across them every day and their resilience in the face of government sanctioned nonsense is a marvel to behold!

Evening BT.

Here is the Labour manifesto.

Corporation tax to rise from 19% to 26%.

Here's what the Adam Smith Institute think.

OC you have presented us with a well thought out economic paradigm devised by an innovative Labour Party think tank and then given us the usual neoliberal retort from a capitalist inspired body of doom-mongers. I'll stick with the Labour Party paradigm thank you very much!

It all gets too much for me sometimes, what's a neo-liberal, is Vince Cable one, can anyone be one ?

[sinkov]

...and still some people will vote for the Tories!

Of course they will BT, in 2010 after 13 years of Labour you were allowed to earn £6,450 before you were taxed. After 7 years of the Tories you're allowed to keep £11,500 of your own money before the government picks your pocket. Why would any ordinary working person think that Labour is the better option ?

The minimum wage which used to go up in pennies under Labour, has increased by more than 25% under the Tories. In another attack on the poorest in society it was Gordon Brown who abolished the 10p tax rate. But of course at least the NHS is safe under Labour, except it isn't, it was Labour wot closed Burnley's A & E.

What have we done to deserve this, useless, incompetent Tories, or a return to the dreary, dismal 70s with Labour. You've got to be a bit of a masochist to vote for either of them.

Same here Sinkov - I have no idea what a neo-liberal is either. Those bloody horsemen again....

BT, do you support Labours plan to raise corporation tax from 19% to 26%?

[1959_60]

Oy, Sinkov.

That starting rate for basic income tax was a Lib Dem idea - the Tories told us it couldn't be done.

Along with the Green Investment Bank (now the Tories have privatised it), the Pupil Premium, plus loads of other stuff which they are now claiming credit for.

The horsemen have buggered off.

You can't go quoting facts at a Socialist, they don't understand the concept. BT said the other day he was up in arms marching with the miners in the 80s, fact is, the previous Labour governments closed down more pits than Thatcher. You can't talk sense to this lot.
