Higher %. I object to paying 40%+. I don't mind paying more per se, obviously I earn more so 20% of my salary might be more than 20% of yours for example.

It just strikes me as unfair. You put effort into your career and succeed and are unable to fully realise the benefits.

I got half of my bonus because of tax - that sucks :(

If you earn more you pay more :shrug:

I really don't see how losing £16-17bn in tax revenues when we already have a massive deficit is brilliance. Or brillance.

Because it will be offset (as shown by the LD's) with other tax and saving changes.

The beauty of this setup is that it rewards the people it should, namely those who work.

I'm sure it will, but that isn't half as much fun as announcing with absolute conviction that you read on someone's Facebook page that Cameron and Clegg are going to divorce their wives and enter into a civil partnership, is it? :D
 
Rise in capital gains tax. On items that don't pertain to business. That will pay for the raise of increase in tax free band.

Referendum on anything involving Europe

Marriage Tax breaks will have Lib Dem's abstaining

Trident will go through

Immigration Cap, Amnesty is gone.

20 Posts for the Lib Dems, 5 in the cabinet, 15 else ware.

Commitment to introduce free schools.

I believe what I see in some suburbs of my city... 14 year old pram pushers and they're not babysitters!

Yes, Mrs Mad Rapper and I were in High Wycombe today for our final scan. A young girl was there with her Mum and she didn't look much older than 14 - 15. How sad. She's had no life of her own and now she's having a baby.
 
LibDem CGT change coming in. That's one policy I didn't want - I'm a big believer in SAYE - investing in your employer's success. Now it gets a clobbering from CGT.

Either way.

Catch 22 situation


Doomed if join LAB doomed if join Tory.

Fact is if they had joined Lab they will not lose as many supporters through joing Tory.

Its a blinkered short term view.And Clegg is intoxicated at the thought of power.
 
*MARRAGE TAX ALLOWANCE TO GO AHEAD (Lib-Dems to abstain on vote)

Only if they don't pull it off. If they pull it off, I can see it working very well for them. But then I float between Lib Dems and Tories normally anyway...
