Park Life 71 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) Tax threshold raised to 10k. Good. New employer allowance is also a good idea. 2k N.I. let off for everyone employed. The Mittlestand (small to middlegroup employers in germany gets loads of these kinds of breaks). Would have taken pensioners off council tax....

Doubt I'll be able to buy a home despite the fact they've finally unfrozen my wages and are handing me a silver plate with 1% on it! Nurses feel REALLY valued getting 1% pay rise since 2010.

I've always believed there should be institutional help for nurses wether it's tax credits or loyalty bonuses for staying in the NHS. Vote Parky!

The nhs is a working environment that large I'm sure it should have its own nurseries for all workers in need of one. Not sure but still think it's free in France. It's a universal right in Austria. Free childcare.

Christmas Tree 4827 Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 Good to see corporation tax being cut. They're having a hell of a time. Silly government trying to recruit big business to the UK. tut tut! Corporation tax falls almost entirely on workers’ wages: a recent study of European countries by economists at the Universities of Warwick and Oxford found that, in the long run, 92% of any rise in corporation tax falls on wages, not profits. In Ireland, corporation tax receipts more than doubled after it cut corporation taxes from 40% to 12.5%, thanks to big increases in foreign direct investment by multinational corporations. Ireland still has the lowest corporation tax rate in Western Europe, and even in its recession has attracted big name firms like Google, Amazon and Twitter to headquarter there instead of London. Ireland is making the strongest comeback from its recession of any Eurozone country, thanks largely to its business-friendly tax regime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it shuts at 6pm and our dayshifts finish at 8pm. It's exclusively for hospital staff but effectively it's a private nursery with the fees that go with that.
