It's overty fascist in my opinion, and combined with the blatant lying about Labour we have come to expect from this government. Sir Michael Take's mockery of it doesn't cheer me up, because most people won't see it and anyway satire is dead, he could well be a real tory back bencher like Gullis. It really shouldn't be legal for the home secretrary to do this, and yet they have the fucking brass neck to try and censor Gary Lineker. I think I officially detest Braverman the most of any in that rancid party, which is some stiff competition. From the day she came on the scene, she just struck me as evil incarnate. I had believed she was too stupid to advance to the upper positions of power but Johnson has normalised incompetence and here we are. Starting to despair we can ever get out of this now. Can’t remember if it was the Express or the Mail that quoted a tweet from Sir Michael Take a while back under the misapprehension he actually was a former Tory MP. As daft as that seems the rhetoric isn’t that different to the satire 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21440 Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 (edited) So listening to bits of that budget, my summary take is that, because there is a labour shortage due in part to Brexit (didn't see this on the side of a bus): If you are retired: GET BACK TO WORK YOU OLD CUNT. If you have kids: GET BACK TO WORK and ignore raisning your kids, YOU CUNT. If you are disabled: GET BACK TO WORK you bone idle shirker, CUNT. If you are unemployed: WE'RE STOPPING YOUR BENEFITS YOU FECKLESS CUNT. Is that about right? Edited March 15, 2023 by Renton 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In contrast over the same time period, real term pay has gone up 10% overall in France (all sectors) and 20% in Germany. And in just 7 years now, the average pole will be better off than the average Brit. The tory cunts have been MUCH worse for the UK than my worst fears.

Renton 21440 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 I've hardly heard it mentioned on the MSM or BBC, but the tax thresholds are being frozen until 2028!!! That's an effewctive 4% increase on your income tax, which is quite mind blowing if you think about it. Still, at least massively rich earners will get some much needed tax relief on their pensions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21440 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 And meanwhile, Hunt is extolling "Work is a virtue" which yeah, is something I can well imagine from Germany circa 1930, I can see it in front of the poor houses soon. He's telling us that at 50 years of age, we have to graft for at least another 20 years. The state pension age going up to reflect this of course. But latest data out today confirms our life expectancy is now going down, mirroring what is happening in the US. Where we were once 7th in the league table of life expectancy, we are now 29th. So not only do we have to work harder, we will die sooner. Less money for the state to spend on pensions I guess. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/mar/16/life-expectancy-in-uk-growing-at-slower-rate-to-comparable-g7-countries 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
