Mounts Kipper Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I’m no expert but Sunak spending money to encourage business, growth and increase tax takings and thus try to reduce our debt, while all starmer could say is need more money for social care & NHS, you can’t spend more money if you don’t fix business and grow the economy. Seems like Labour never learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like Labour never learn. Agreed, but then Labour have always, always been the same - yet some people will always choose to blindly vote for them If anything, I'd take money away from the NHS, and start selling bits of it off, that would help reduce the debt a bit quicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideal world it should be higher than it is but that means consumers paying more. if it was more would It get lazy work shy cunts out the house and into work? Probably not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s about right where it is otherwise the difference between those at the lower end and semi-skilled/skilled will be too close leading to pay demands for the bigger earners ultimately leading to higher prices and so on. However, I believe in the nmw as no one should be made to work for next to fuck all unless they’re an apprentice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely worth investing in the wallets with screening to prevent your card being pinged in your pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up here in the north I think the nmw is fine as it is, pretty good in fact, for the SE not so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted March 3, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted March 3, 2021 I don't think that is too bad at all considering the rate at which you start to pay tax has increased a lot in recent years. Add in benefits for parents etc it is fairly good I think. Only caveat to that is those in London/SE, that probably won't even cover rent.
