REALLY glad we've put our bits and pieces waay out of reach!

Technically I could now apply for a variety of benefits but that would be beyond even my chutzpah!

Re: Labour's plans to raid inheritance tax threshold

I do wish they wouldn't call themselves the Labour Party. That party was destroyed when Blair took over, followed by the Three Stooges, Brown, Milipede and Corbyn.

I'm certainly not going to worry about Corbyn's goons threatening such action. It's the same league as the fairytale regarding taxing anyone who owns their property and has a garden. Complete pie-in-the-sky. Just soundbites trickled out deliberately to see what sort of favourable reaction this rubbish would be received from the millions of working-class people north of Watford that they have betrayed, in their broken promises over Brexit and their hopeless, never-ending quest for a General Election.

Put em back in their box. The Labour Party haven't got a cat in hell's chance of ever winning a GE so I refuse to even give it a second thought.

Well I'm going to probably going to put a pony on a Labour win, especially if Corbyn bows out before the date, and if Blair were to take his place it'd be a grand.

Re: Labour's plans to raid inheritance tax threshold

Labour are robbing people of their property that's already been paid for through taxable income.

They punish savers and those that are careful with their money. Brown was no better when he raided pensions 3 times. A pension is saving for your retirement while you are in work.

Re: Labour's plans to raid inheritance tax threshold

Look on it as retrospective taxation. Or redistribution of wealth.

In the case of redistribution of wealth they should definitely start with the royal family and their tribe.
