October 30, 20241 yr Been watching analysis on TV. General feeling is that they have gone big so they can get through the shit whilst an election is miles off. 3-4 people saying that the lack of allocation of money to infected blood and Horizon might explain the early election. Get it out of the way before the gap was public knowledge.

You could have said those on minimum wage will have an extra £30 a week (if working 37.5hrs a week) to spend on the pints. Why would I have said that? Why would I put a few pence in a charity box at the game? I’ve never seen a charity box at a game. Who said I’d rather not have money off? Are you ok?

Get it out of the way before the gap was public knowledge. Certainly a thought. The stories were well in the public domain, but it doesn't necessarily ring out with folk until the money get paid.

The point was more about the money not being included in the Tory's numbers , even though they did not know the exact figure they should have had some provision in. Early election passed the buck.

October 30, 20241 yr So, is my understanding correct... If you're a carer with less than £151 per week income currently, you can claim this £80/week, but if you're a penny over the £151, you get nothing? Edited October 30, 20241 yr by Traf

Who said I’d rather not have money off? Are you ok? I’m more than ok. I’m feeling very positive having seen a budget from a government that is keen to ditch the austerity and leave behind unfunded sound bite waffle policies like those we’ve seen during the last 14 years. If you're happy to have money off the beers, your original post about a penny off pints seems a little silly…

October 30, 20241 yr Although every budget does have an effect on everyone. I can't say any budget has made me change my life in any great way. I just adapt and role with whatever happens.
October 30, 20241 yr It’s not like Labour have got <checks> 14 years of financial sewage to sort out.

It’s the Labour Party who seem happy about it and making a point of it .
October 30, 20241 yr For the last few years it's all been Labours fault for selling the gold. Then it was Covids fault. Then it was Ukraines fault. They denied any of it was Brexits fault. Now it's all Labours fault. Like taking a big shit on the floor and having a pop at the fucker cleaning it up for not doing it right.

October 30, 20241 yr Quite hilarious that the usual suspects are all sharing this "penny off a pint" thing. Just had the exact same screenshot from my Farage/Trump-loving mate. It's quite obviously a cover for the absolute fuming going on in their heads. 😁

October 30, 20241 yr The markets seem to be ok with it. Just maybe they’re asking everyone to contribute towards a slightly better set of public services. Which have been bogwank for roughly 14 years.

Yes and if you're self employed and throughout a year ever earn over that 151 quid in a week you can't claim either their system doesn't accommodate fluctuations in earnings.
