Sadly the reality is this. 
Regardless of whether it is fair or not, pensioners did not save enough or reproduce enough to cover the costs of their own retirement
They are also most likely to vote against immigrants who might do the work needed to pay for the shortfall

Under new laws passed today, British citizens promoting the UK leaving ECHR will be classified as political enemies of the state and immediately transferred to makeshift prison camps in the Orkney Islands for an indefinite period without trial or right of appeal.
If true, this is slightly shocking from the UK perspective 
Rapidly coming to the opinion that we canβt currently afford the public services we do have - yet the amount we spend on the NHS / Healthcare is so much lower than other advanced nations
And we still expect world leading care / outcomes?

PCTCT (as before).     60
Tax credit restriction   20
Revised PCTCT.          80
Tax at 25%.                 (20)
Profit.                            40
Therefore the billionaire can withdraw Β£5 less due to the restriction
Sure, itβs the rate of corporation tax
Wages (including employers NIC) are βallowableβ expenses which means they are deducted from profits chargeable to corporation tax
Therefore these costs reduce the amount of tax you pay eg
Sales     100
Wages   (40)
PCTCT.  60
Tax.       (15)
Profit.   45
The best World Cup ever.
I will hear no arguments to the contrary.
Would obviously not apply to apprentices and trainees
But if youβre a billionaire who doesnβt pay your staff enough that the state / taxpayer is picking up the rest of the bill and youβve been able to extract even more cash from your business due to these subsidies- then that needs addressing IMO
Staff receiving tax credits could easily be identified through personal tax codes
The level of corporation tax relief on wages could be restricted by value of credits given
Encourages fairer wages, reduces subsidies for profitable business & burden on the taxpayer.
Why should large employers receive tax relief at 25% on salaries / wages paid to staff that are so low the taxpayer has to top them up with tax credits? Esp. Someone like Amazon
Itβs an obvious absurdity. A double dip. Second bite of the cherry. 
At a time when benefits bill is higher than ever

Carlton the de facto leader at the moment but is it only temporary in squad players minds?

Does anyone else have other ridiculous / irritating Luton banter techniques from school?
π I invented something called Guentchevβs Law at school
When he played for Bulgaria in the semi final of the World Cup I argued this placed him in the top 44 players in the world and thus Luton had the best player in Division One as it was then
It stumped my mates completely and utterly
I say there is no excuse not to vote these days. So if there is going to be PR, everyone has to vote - even if it is to say βI donβt careβ - but everyone has to vote
