The Budget

[cybermum]

If you are on £150,000+ a year its 50% tax for you.
Seriously,how many people earn that?
And those that do are already booking their flights out of here! LOL

There saying that extra 5% will raise £1 Billion, thats a lot of people earning over then. But I would be out of here too.

David Cameron's head look like it was going to explode, and I wanted to slap Gordon Brown by the end he just kept laughing (once he had woken up ) and had a ridiculous smug look on his face.

i work for financial advisers and theres alot of people that are on that amount of money, i think 50% tax is bloody ridiculous for anyone!! The people that are on that will find ways around it, they always do!! The budget is a farce! i think before they start spending half a billion on wind farms that they should try and sort out our economy! and who has a 10year old car can suddenly afford a brand new one just because they get £2000?? people who can afford a new car will just buy an old banger so they can Part ex it for £2k off a new car, its not going to help the people that need the help... hope some of this makes sense! x

[Baci]

I think with the car scheme, you have to have been the registered keeper of the car for 12 months to get the £2k...
