my my you girlies have been busy while i was at the shop hehe

I agree in regards to stopped CTF, it is something we managed very well with for hundreds of years, stopping CTF could save the government ALOT of money and therefore reducing the amount needed to be made by putting up taxes

 

[reallytinyamy]

^^^agreed, CTF is not a necessity for any of us is it really?

hmmmm......... prescriptions are £3 now..... if cons get in watch them go back up to £9 Pfft

DC is detrmined to cut the national debt quickly, which IMO is far too risky. People cant afford to live just now as it is and he isnt going to help that.

They can't as health is a devolved matter, it was the SNP that brought in the low charges.

Maybe they should cut politicians wages.......... footballers who earn 30k a week should pay a shit load of tax........

Councils wasting millions just so they spend everything before the end of the tax year

There is a million different ways to save the country money without making normal people suffer

so true!

 

[buttonnose82]

ugh apparently they are 'entitled to private discussions' in regards to joining other parties, am i the only on that finds this wrong, they are meant to be working for the people therefore we should know what is being said/offered in regards to 2/3/4 parties joining forces

I would imagine footballers earning £30,000 a week DO pay a shit load of tax (probably about £12,000 a week!)

 

[scottishgal89]

they shouldnt be earning that much in the first place if you look at the comparison to the soldiers fighting in afghanistan!
buttonnose- yeah your right we should be involved. meant to be our decision and they should keep us in the loop so to speak

Yup - at 40% tax, its a lot. Someone who earns £72k only physically takes home 45k

I think the child trust funds were a lovely gesture whilst the country could afford it but sadly we can't anymore so i feel it should be scrapped. I think the health in pregnancy grant should go too.

Me too!

I guess. But I don't agree with tax credits etc being stopped and rises in tax and rent... some people just won't be able to afford to live without the help of tax credits and certain benefits.

P.s. lib dems said they'd reduce debt by X by doing Y but their calculations didn't even add up

yup we managed before we can manage again, cutbacks NEED to be made, it makes sense to make it in areas like these where they are literally as you say, a nice gesture, they aren't essential

Hmm, I'm on the fence in regards to the price of council housing. I find it laughable that some peoples rent is like £5 a week :\

[buttonnose82]

£5 a week ..... are you serious?
