The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)

[Come On You Irons]

There. Resident WHO political commentators and gurus can knock yourselves out in here and conduct your endless bickering. All other threads will be locked.

[Eerie Decent]

The people who voted Labour in, are at both ends of the spectrum. People rich enough that it won't hit them hard, like celebrities and their cսnt mates, and the people who don't put into the system.

The ones who have a lot to answer for are those that didn't vote at all.

[Mike Oxsaw]

All those who voted Labour in, even if it was a protest vote against those cunts, the Tories, should be feeling mighty proud of themselves tonight.

You've got exactly what it says on the can.

[Fauxstralian]

I’m not a supporter of the government 
Or the pitiful Tories
Not even Nazi Nigel 

[Lee Trundle]

They surely can't last another 4 years in power?

Any of their supporters want to stick up for them anymore?

One Sunny They?  Sven?  ray?

Reeves doing what they do best....Tax-a-holic! Personally as a Ltd Company Contractor....Dividend Tax hurts. 

And as for continuing to freeze Income Tax bands to 2031....massive pile of cսnt that is Another 6 years at the current thresholds means they'll have been frozen for pretty much 10 years...by which point goods are likely to be about 40% (!) more expensive than when the freeze started! 

By other calculators it's more like 50% (I'm using the ten years up to now to extrapolate to the ten years it will have been by 2031....so it assumes the rate of inflation between. 2015 and 2021 matches up to the rates between now and 2031). 

Means by the time we get rates unfreezed (if it ever happens) the higher threshold will be the equivalent of about 33k (as of the point the freeze started)! 

Living standards in the UK going through the floor. Government are cunts....all of them (regardless of party).

fair play to Kemi Badenoch - she absolutely destroyed Reeves.
"budget for Benefits Street paid for by working people"

Reeves looks like she might cry again.

[Fauxstralian]

Delaying the changes to salary sacrifices into pensions until April 2029.
Suits me. Was expecting it to be from April 2026 costing me a fair bit 
 

[Sweep]

A desperate and clueless government trying to buy the votes of the kind of people who have large families and live on benefits.

Tax threshold freeze will have gone on for ten years if this policy sticks. Shocking confiscation of wages from the low paid whilst dragging middle income people (mostly Londoners and southerners) into a tax bracket that is supposed to be for the well-off. Ever more pensioners will be paying income tax on their old age pension.


 

[Council Scum]

Stay at home, have more kids and don't worry because we will tax the mugs that go out to work everyday more. Labour are a bunch of cunts.

3p per mile for electric cars? I'll be binning mine off by April 28 and going back to fuel.

These cunts are fucking clueless.

 

 

And this is why they brought forward the sale of electric cars only from 2030.

They left don't want to raise people up, they want everyone dragged down together. 

[goose]

having to watch that slug Lammy is the worst part of this, pointing fingers and shouting 'shame' at everyone.


hilarious her talking about bringing inflation down, as it was her decisions which have pushed inflation back up.
 

[Come On You Irons]

It's alright to pick workers' pockets more as they are making it easier for the idle feckless to pop out kids left, right and centre and bill the taxpayer for it.

A contemptible government.

[Nurse Ratched]

When the Tories froze the income tax threshold, Reeves said they were "picking the pockets" of working people.
but now it's okay apparently.

Apparently a pickpocketing is beyond the pale, but a violent mugging is OK.

watching this live and they are all just embarrassing. 
they are selling working people down the river, and they all sit there and shout and laugh and joke. constantly blaming the other party for the shit state of the country.
they have no idea what life is like for real people.

guy fawkes had the right idea.

[Council Scum]

Is that right, is the current Labour Party moving the goal posts on state retirement age for anyone born after 1970?


 

Now getting hit with NI on your pension in your salary now as well. No point even bothering with a private mention anymore 

[Come On You Irons]

£26 BILLION of tax raises by 2030.

Extension of tax threshold freeze until 2031.

Two child benefit cap lifted meaning the idle feckless can pop out more kids and bill the taxpayer.

This socialist government has to be the worst in living memory. Still four more years of these clowns to endure.

[Mike Oxsaw]

The much hyped budget is today. Working people will be further taxed by this government so that they can support those who do not work.

if you look back at the pre-election debates, the much maligned Rishi Sunak warned about labour putting up taxes and was shouted down. Turns out that he was right.

Rachel from accounts seems determined to kill the U.K. economy.

They've been spinning this for two or three weeks in the hope of hoodwinking the voters/population.

I suspect Rachel from accounts is going to get a shock with how quickly ordinary people, not to mention businesses, work out that she's stitched them up...again

So Starmer and Lammy are now proposing to bin the right to trial by jury in most cases.

Makes it easier to lock people up who criticise them and their dyspotian policies I suppose.

Could actually work l mean you get a muzzie on a grooming charge and he only needs 3 of them on the jury and you don't get a verdict as they dont convict their own

Anything that covers Pauline Hanson’s face has to be a positive 

[Massive Attack]

You stick it to the buggers old girl..  



Full face coverings are 100% a security risk, this shouldn't even be a debate in the modern age.

Fuck the Burka off!
