@JohnCleese It obviously helps that his MP salary is mere pocket money to him. If he’s such a hero maybe he’ll give away his monthly income not his MP salary. Just a gimmick
@8Yards8Feet@alansherwell@paullewismoney I understand your point, but I disagree. Any way, it would never happen because it would be far too complicated. But the current tax bands seem far too simplistic and a better sliding scale through income bands would be more progressive, including removing the cliff edges at 100k
@alansherwell@paullewismoney Everyone should pay income tax at some rate. No one should access public services for free if they are in work. I’d have a sliding scale starting at 5% on low incomes
@afneil The British people really don’t. Suits and ties are performance rubbish. An old fashioned nonsense (as demonstrated by the fact they are disappearing so fast from the workplace). And don’t even get me started on the ludicrous garb the kids in the royal family gave to wear….
