They don't. They think you should take home 0% as you earn more than them and are therefore evil. But they think 30% will get them elected.

Yes that is going to attracted high calibre talent to come to this country.

Trouble is Corbyn has made a manifesto pledge not to tax the 95% - what will happen when he can't raise the money he needs?

Anyway, two of the London attackers were in this country because of FM - i still can't believe that will play well for Labour.

There is also quite a large transfer outside of taxes for example for transport the rich subsidise the poor by buying new cars and selling them 3 years later for half the price. The rich also buy the higher margin products in shops without which the much lower margin products would be to be higher priced.

If no-one bought new cars or high-margin goods, the prices of them would come down. So they are responsible for us having nicer things, but not necessarily for us being able to afford basic things. You could argue that the demand for new, high spec cars over here is just pushing the price of new cars up (The cheapest new Ford Focus, a pretty middle-of-the-road family car, costs just under £20k)

But she won't, will she?

Let's face it she's nearly 61, but looks much older than that. Not in the best of health, and has made herself look a complete fool during the Election process.

I'll give her six months and a nice Pension.

Have you guys given up already? The election's not until tomorrow. There's still time for Comrade Corbyn to gain his rightful place as Sumpreme Leader of these lands to rob from the rich and give to the poor. Come on, Corby, you can do it, firing your Shadow Home Secretary at the last minute is a shrew move!

Yes a Britain that welcomes all those who want a free lunch whilst driving away all those who want to work hard and generate real wealth. Maybe you should give up reading the childish folk tales and pick up a business book or three? The year is 2017 not 1317.

Who's being driven away by a Labour Government? Private rail operators and health operators?

People for whom Labour policies will decrease the standard of living they worked to achieve to subsidise those who can't or won't.

I'm sure I cannot be the only person who finds the cover of today's Daily Mail totally despicable and offensive:



I know we get lambasted for going on about the Mail all the time, but is truly an awful (at times bordering on seditious) rag! :mad:

Except it's true. As i and many others pointed out on the Corbynomics thread.

Corbyn McDonnell and Abbott supported the Republician cause, they supported the "armed struggle". They supported Hamas.

And they hated the "British State"

You're deluded mate.

You think your guys are saints - they're not- they're sinners.

I have no idea how anyone in their right mind could vote for them.

Desperate stuff.
Murdoch, Dacre and the 4th Viscount Rothermere must be getting worried.
