It's an outdated tax that nobody should be paying. The gravy train is about to hit the buffers

Scotland has its own right wing nut jobs. Thankfully, not enough to cause problems

At first I laughed then remembered that any loss this mob have will go straight to Reform.
We cannot let Reform get a foothold in the Scottish Parliament!

I couldn't believe the stat that over 1.2 million people are employed by the NHS in England!
To lose 100,000 is over 8% of the workforce!

Is complacency set in now that we know our nearest rivals can't buy a win?
It's so frustrating to watch a team who were on fire against Bayern play so lacklustre.
This is why we need a strong tribute act to keep us fresh.

I thought Butland was worth ยฃ30m?

05.04.2025 18:16 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 4    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Here's an idea. For assets over ยฃ10m, straight 2% tax.
That's ยฃ200,000. It's nothing off a 10m fortune, it'll be made back up in no time by interest accrued on savings.
Here's the kicker. An exit tax. If they want to disappear to another Country, tax them 10% straight off.
Let's see who runs then.

It's got a picture of Sir Liar Starmer so it must be a scam

Or a new Scottish approach. Independence then tell them to F off.

It is absolutely surreal that this still goes on while millions of people are barely keeping afloat.
Get these scroungers so far into the sea!

So as I see it, ordinary people are going to suffer because a few egos are having a willie waving contest?
We've never learned from past mistakes and are destined to keep making the same mistakes.
No wonder the political world is a horrible place just now.

Wonder if his Head Office will sign off the expenses on the junior branch managers beano?
A bit pathetic tbh and he's left that giant liar to deputise for him
