Party Political Broadcast for Anyone Still Sane!
Stop pretending that Jeremy has all the Answers!
So, according to some in La La Land, if Jeremy gets into Downing Street, the whole country will be put to rights, the living standards of the have-nots, the downtrodden, the elderly and the disabled would somehow magically rise to giddying heights previously unknown. All, of course, thanks to Jeremy and his many promises to the above and many more of us, of just how he will do it.
His plan, as he is always so eager to inform us, is to tax the rich by raising corporation tax and raising tax on those earning over £80,000 a year. (that should please his political bed-mates, such as MP’s who have second jobs, Union officials, Doctors, Head-Teachers, etc.)
His grandiose, well-thought-out plan, according to the Labour party, comes to £48.6 billion. But by enacting the above pony trick, he will only bring in £40 Billion!. Where does he intend to get the rest from? The Money Tree?
Does he think that by taxing the richest in our society is victimless? Simply by his actions, this will result in lost jobs, lower wages, higher prices for customers, hammering pension schemes and undermining the economy.
By pretending that all will be put right by squeezing only the rich, Jeremy is lying to the whole country by being completely dishonest. If the money is not in the purse to carry out all that he promises, then of course, it is inevitable that ordinary people will suffer tax rises. He has no other choice!
This doesn’t even include his wild promise to raise the minimum wage to £10 by 2020. Only by job losses could this be achieved.
Jeremy is a Liar! His promise to the British public that everything will be fine once he is in power, is a joke. His ridiculous promise to tax only 5% of the country by soaking the rich and leaving all ordinary households alone is another blatant lie. He says we will have free higher education, free childcare, more spent on pay, healthcare and infrastructure by taxing just a few for the many, it’s all pure pie-in-the-sky story-telling, There is simply no way he can promise billions and billions of pounds of spending by taxing just a small group. DOH! Comes to mind.
Mind you, Theresa May and her government have only themselves to blame for so many disallusioned, unhappy people looking upon Jeremy as the Messiah to save them. The gross stupidity of TM’s lot to announce means-testing the winter fuel allowance and plans to scrap the triple-lock on state pension annual rises during an election campaign, (sigh!) sent the sign out to a generation who trusted them to do right, the message that she was willing instead to betray them and in turn, they abandoned her when she needed them. Serves her bluddy well right.
But don’t be fooled by a charlatan in the pocket of the union barons. You have the means at hand to look back to the mess that was the 70's at the hands of Labour. You only have to also look at a country and president that Jeremy admires immensely to see the future if you do …. Venezuela! where the same promises were made to its people by a Marxist government. Those same people are now scrabbling daily in dustbins in order to desperately feed their families.
Don’t snigger too loudly. Put a man like Jeremy in power and watch the fuse burn brightly.
RULE BRITANNIA!
