No objection at all to tax rises across the whole of the UK to pay for the NHS That's the nub of the matter. Disproportionate protests against the SNP daring to very slightly adjust the balance of the tax burden in Scotland. Ignoring the fact that Scotland needs as many tax pounds as possible to fund all of the vital public services that Mooth and the rest complain about so much and so often. Why? Because it's their duty to complain against the well off having to pay a small amount more. As ever the Tories speaking up only for their own. Everyone knows how taxes will rise nationwide. The general basic rate will rise and/or allowances frozen. There will be no adjustment towards the better off and if the poor cannot afford bread, let them eat from food banks.

Earned less than £33k you paid less and over that it was literally nothing more than a couple of quid a week. They made it sound like you’d be thousands worse off when you look at stuff like your council tax over the years, no water meters etc etc you were actually much better off.

Bazzas right boot Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) The tories voted against the NHS on its foundation. A few weeks ago they stopped the up skirting law to pass. They want to leave the EU, just before the new tax laws take force. They want to withdraw from the bill of human rights. They are not good at the core in any way. In England, they cheered after greenfell when the pay increases for civil servants including fire fighters were voted down. In the last 8 years- Less hospitals, nurses, schools, social housing, social care, police, fire fighters and defence personal. The NHS is getting sold off, the brexit situation is a shambles, the champion austerity and yet the national debt has tripled under their watch. Greenfell and the Manchester attacks and the folk that died are on them. The vow to Scotland after 2014 hasn't been delivered and we will lose powers. Folk will still vote for them. Many who depend on the services that they are destroying, I don't get it. The SNP do not get everything correct, but they are a massive shit shield. Unfortunately, due to how the Barnet formula works as England spends less public money due the economy and privatisation, we will get less money and the shite shield will fail and we will start to severely feel the effects.
