Not seen anything on this but if true i wonder if Labour are considering dropping the high income tax threshold to £45K? Could imagine spin that its not technically a tax increase just a change in the threshold at which you pay more tax.....Has anyone seen this sly news story about a treasury note stating that anyone earning more than £45k is not considered to be a working person? What the actual f?
I guess I’d better start firing up the benefits claims, it’s an easy life for me from now then! Loving labours early retirement policy!
Probably another made up story. did you happen to read it on Twitter by any chance. Unless a politician actually says it why would anyone believe it. Maybe I am just a cynical old bastard who doesn't believe half of what he reads on the net or in newspapers.Has anyone seen this sly news story about a treasury note stating that anyone earning more than £45k is not considered to be a working person?

No I don’t do twitter it was on sky news.
Thanks for the link agree100% with the bolded bit i was thinking once you say it out loud it's harder to back track. mind you i guess you can just say fake news & move on. does Rupert Murdoch still own Sky or has he passed it on to his son. i ask because he owns Foxtel here & some of the stuff they put out you'd think we were in América not ozNo I don’t do twitter it was on sky news.
Who knows if it’s true, but a politician saying it isn’t wouldn’t mean it’s false, they’re just as dishonest as the media!
This is the article: https://news.sky.com/story/income-tax-and-national-insurance-unlikely-to-rise-as-sky-news-obtains-definition-of-working-people-13459288#:~:text=Sky News-,Income tax and national insurance unlikely to rise - as Sky,qualify as "working people".
Not sure re Rupert Murdoch but to be fair I think his sons are cut from the same cloth!
I wonder how many people would not vote if an election was called tomorrow.
Yeah, the biggest asshole son, Lachlan, eventually won control. What a fudging shame that was.
Twitter is a cesspool to begin with, but I can only imagine what is being posted considering the panel (I can't see the replies).
No chance it’s dead as a dodo.
So it wasn’t at all about racism as set out by remainers?
They might reconsider closer to election time if their numbers are still in the toilet. FPTP gives out chaotic results in an election where there are multiple parties all relatively close in the polls.
