@GyllKing If it really was corporate greed (it isn’t) then one manufacturer would price much lower and take all the business. They don’t, because they can’t. Because it’s milk and labour prices. Source: my 18 years supplying the food manufacturing industry.

@KemiBadenoch Aren’t they self-employed?

@anon_opin Get two people to define “fair” without colluding, then we can talk

@Empty_America Standard of living and quality of life are different. Your standard of living and quality of life don’t necessarily reduce in lockstep

@TheEscapeART1ST 50% here in Scotland including NI. 47% from £75k upwards, 67% between £100k and 125k.

@PaulRiver1A @MikeTho04795078 @LeoKearse Also. It’s “more cash” that matters when you need to pay for things, like public services.

Do you want people to be taxed on loans as income? Would certainly kill off home ownership and business expansion, I suppose. Or is that the point?

[Sam @SammyChong1985]

@PaulRiver1A @MikeTho04795078 @LeoKearse Apologies. You said “higher” not “top”. Point still stands. Did you mean “rich people” in a vague and nebulous way? As in, “these are some things I have heard about that rich people do, and this doesn’t seem fair to me”

[Sam @SammyChong1985]

@PaulRiver1A @MikeTho04795078 @LeoKearse Cool. You are totally right there. Top marks. Totally irrelevant though isn’t it? You were talking about “top earners”. Earned income. Can’t do any of that with earned income can you? Have another go or no reply?

Sunak: 50,000 illegals later, he can’t stop the boats

Starmer will not stop the boats

Only @reformparty_uk will stop the boats

Leave ECHR, pick up & take back

@PaulRiver1A @MikeTho04795078 @LeoKearse They pay the most. Top 1% pay 28% of all income tax (old data), top 10% pay 60%(recent data). If you earn 4x average earnings you pay 10x the tax (ish). Seems a lot, doesn’t it? How much do you think is “fair”?

@westyjase @MikeTho04795078 @LeoKearse I get the impression that you think I am incorrect. I doubt you think I am joking or that it is funny. I will leave you to discover this inalienable fact in your free time.

[Cut My Tax @CutMyTaxUK]

The high tax brigade are lobbying Labour to impose another death tax.

While now inheritance tax is applied at 40% they want to add capital gains tax - at rates up to 45% or more.

This could mean over half of some estates being confiscated by the taxman.

@LabourIsDead @MikeTho04795078 @LeoKearse It makes you a millionaire in the sense that your pension is worth more than a million?

[Sam @SammyChong1985]

Exhibit “a”

[Sam @SammyChong1985]

Try and get a index-linked guaranteed £40k a year forever, without market risk, in the private sector. They will ask you for more than £1million. It’s this kind of financial illiteracy that you can get away with in the public sector because others pay for you.

[Sam @SammyChong1985]

@LabourIsDead @MikeTho04795078 @LeoKearse Thanks for confirming I am right. Try and get a index linked guaranteed £40k a year forever, without risk, in the private sector. They will ask you for more than £1million. It’s this kind of financial illiteracy that you can get away with in the public sector because others pay.

[Sam @SammyChong1985]

@westyjase @MikeTho04795078 @LeoKearse Didn’t say “are paid,” said “cost £100K”. Many civil servants are made millionaires at taxpayer expense
