You do not pay MAD MAX so you will be fine. 

It's going to be horrendous.

Is it balls.

Can’t be any worse than Lis Truss surely

If you are "ordinary" nothing will change... give with one hand and take with t'other... they'll keep us all in our places.

The powers will always let us get by or there will be revolution

Employee NI rates up. 

Business rate relief ending. 

Small Businesses are going to be absolutely hammered.

Indeed.

I hope and pray they go easier than expected.

Small business's are just about getting going again.

In a lot of towns the rate relief worked wonders and turned some particular areas in to thriving ones.

I know something has to be done but christ don't make life any harder for those actually trying.

 

 

 

NI... read National Insurance

That is your Health Service and Pension. Sunak wanted to scrap it and bring in his American profiteering Insurance mates... and if you didn't have "insurance" you would be fucked and reliant on charity.

Even Johnson got it, he put up NI to fund the desperately needed improvements in the care system, then loony Truss took it down... and then Sunak wanted to scrap it.

What is wrong with funding care and health provision in society? We need to get NI where it should be and ring fence it rather than viewing it as some sort of tax.

Fact is the tax avoiders like LW and the member of my family mentioned earlier in the thread are one of the real issues. 
 

PAYE folk get no choice.

I'm talking about the rafts or privately run shops and businesses. 

Small businesses don't get away with not paying tax mate. 

As it stands if you run a bistro with 4 staff you're are going to get nailed with what's projected. 

Small places like that are already on knife edge.

I'm not talking about self employed painters. 

 

 

I expect to pay a bit more tbh.

I'd be quite happy to pay more tax in return for properly functioning public services.

And there in lies the problem.

Political parties use tax cuts as a way of trying to get you to vote for them but people don’t realise the implications of less money coming into the government coffers, which is usually cuts to services.

When income tax was 30% we had functioning healthcare, schools and social care along with roads that weren’t full of pot holes. Reduce it to 20% to win votes and we are now seeing the impact of it.

Im sure most people would pay a bit more tax if it was ring fenced for public services but we also need to crack down on cash in hand jobs.

I agree. And there a shit load of tradies taking the absolute piss with tax. They need to be paying their way too! 

All these pensioners moaning about their fuel allowance being taken away, bet most of them voted for Labour too.

90% of the pensioners I know don’t need the winter fuel allowance they use it to pay part on holidays gifts to grandkids

Indeed there is but it's nowhere near the gravy train it once was for the self employed.

All depends on what you want out of life. If you want a mortgage you need proof of earnings. You go on holiday HMRC know about it. They have your DVLA too.

As it stands you get punished for doing better. I went limited etc and then got hammered on corporation tax. Have staff your going to get hammered In the next budget. Rising wages but not rising prices.
