And the law can only be changed to address this issue when governments are putting the needs of the general public first over the needs of the super rich. The UK doesn’t have one of these, and it’s mainly because of my last post that this is the case. They aren’t campaigning on a mandate to address the problem because people are apathetic or facking mental and bootlick billionaires and corporations.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

As I said, let’s see what this government does. They’ll close non dom and the like but will be the usual lily liverish when it comes to corporations.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is exactly what I suspect will happen because the super rich have so much power of government policy, this is the sad thing about it all.

Doesn’t make it right, but it’s the same the world over. We are far from unique and thankfully we’re not American

Part of the problem is that tax has become such a dirty to word to so many, but that you can also sympathise with many lower earners that don’t want to pay it because so much of our tax revenues are facking wasted. It’s a circular problem due to decades of neglect, corruption and coercion.

I know it’s not unique, it’s why the world is completely facked right now.

In other news the Netherlands and Hungary alongside Germany are demanding they do not comply with open border policy.

Corporations and billionaires control the narrative and that's how they have people like Gingernuts voting against their own self interests in backing Brexit and the Tories.

Their propaganda nailed the weak minded, like Gingernuts, and they cheered on Brexit and the Tories as they facked the country and made the rich richer.

Why did he accept all this? Because they promised to stop the boats.

Israeli occupation soldiers throw injured men from a rooftop in Qabatiya outside Jenin in the occupied West Bank earlier today. This is Israel’s “self defence”

Ginge - I don’t know why you bother mate. You won’t get any reasoned debate.

Take Amazon - “ oh they pay no tax they’re horrible” etc etc

No mention nor understanding of the consequential taxes paid by employees, millions of businesses and employees, only focus on the top corporations.

Same thing with subsidies, minimum wages et cetera: so much confidence from them, so little knowledge or really life experience.

Whilst also demonstrating the obsession with this conflict vs the relative apathy towards other, and sometimes more severe, conflicts.

If I may respond to that final paragraph. Whilst I don’t know what Ginge did or did not vote for, let alone the reasons (and I doubt that you know either Mamba), I highly doubt he is the first or last person to vote for something that was promised but not delivered by a politician. In fact, I’d say that is commonplace given how sheetty politicians are at delivering what they say they will. And that’s not even the last 20 odd years, this premise has been demonstrable for much longer, almost boringly so…

And Ginge doesn’t come across as anything like weak-minded. That’s just a poor insult similar to what you often come out with to anyone that disagrees with you or generally has opposing viewpoints to you.

Person A thinks similar to what I do - great
Person B thinks differently to me - weak-minded


Let’s be honest Mambinator - weak-minded people feel this way.

Difference of opinion, same as beliefs, looks, experience is arguably one of the most beautiful parts of life as a free human being; embrace it, don’t shun it and try to stifle it.

Oh it’s him that is the filtered one that seems to latch onto pretty much anything I post

Petty and bitter little individual and a coward at that by posting insults and untruths behind my back when he knows they’re not being seen by me.

Stopping In-Work Benefits, which are basically subsidies to big corporations like Uber, would save more money than targetting pensioners.

No, it would force wealthy companies to pay the Living Wage out of their own pockets rather than using government subsidies

Really mate, you gotta stop using Dearie Me and a laugh emoji as some kind of definitive, clever and cutting retort. Many of you posts on this conversation alone is littererd with it.

The UK's public sector debt has hit 100% of the value of the country's annual economic output for the first time since the 1960s, according to official figures released ahead of the chancellor's maiden budget.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said, in a preliminary estimate, that the figure had risen from the 99.3% figure recorded the previous month.
