Re: The Budget Cuts
As an OAP and retired now, apart from the v.a.t. increase coming in January I don't think he has done a lot to directly affect us, so we are fortunate. I believe Osborne has said he will not cut anything from pensioners, but we could do without the fuel allowance and could have stood to a bit more on income tax if it was necessary.Re: The Budget Cuts
With the Retirement age being increased - this would presumably be fine for anyone who is already in employment (and hopefully enjoying their work), but the modern attitude appears to be against anyone over 50!!! So sadly would their 'job seeking' be officially stretched (and dismal) rather than be able to retire?Re: The Budget Cuts
The one thing I am worried about is how Wales is already getting screwed - Labour spent years building us up, and now the tories are intent on destroying us!!!Re: The Budget Cuts
I can't see how these cuts are going to help. People are losing thier jobs rapidly so it will cost more in unemployment benefit, because there is no jobs.
