Is that because we are being taxed to death by a party of low tax? Don't give me pandemic to try to justify it.

He did suggest just so.

Should they have to hedge though?

All we’re really seeing now is us having to pay back the artificially capped rates by the companies that did hedge.

No such thing as a free lunch.

Then what? When do they put their prices back up, Just before they go bankrupt ?

“...more money than they know what to do with...”

 

Im guessing that’s a short hop to bankruptcy no?

Not that long ago in the grand scheme of things. Coffers need refilling. The Tories have blown monumental amounts of money on Covid but whatever they blew it was never enough for the SNP, Labour or the Lib Dumbs.
 

So considering the above letter in times that did not include Covid or Brexit and the opposition screaming hysterically for more restrictions (which cost eye wateringly) and more funds for Covid I think it’s fairly safe to say we’re better with the devil we know and we’d be taxed far more under another party. You know, like the SNP are doing up in Scotland. 
 

I wish I paid the tax you guys do down in Englandshire.

It was 12 years ago, probably more than a quarter more than your lifetime, beating up the working class isn't the way to fill the coffers, although you think it is. Beat them who've got the cash... but you don't like that, do you?

See? I knew you knew.

 

Nothing to do with beating up the working class, which since I work I’m apart of. I wholeheartedly agree with not beating them up considering it’s me getting hammered here in Scotland. But then we’ve come full circle back to the lazy and the feckless. Buying their votes is expensive, but since they make up an increasing majority all the parties need to now do so. The SNP are a case in point.

 

So, back to Labours parting letter, to have spunked all the cash to whom where they hammering and where did the money go?

 

Im in favour of a far fairer society where people are held accountable for their actions but also their inactions. The amount of lazy and feckless in the UK is unsustainable and it’s the working to middle class who have to fund their lifestyles. I say fark that. We need to end buying votes with more and more freebies for the workshy and scum of the UK. The tails wagging the dog.

You know that is nonsense though, don't you trig, honestly how many spongers do you know? As you know I've recently moved, and I've  not met one around here, in the city it's a different story, but on the whole I very rarely see these people, do you? I'd like the truth, not your political view.

You don’t personally need to know nor meet any spongers. It matters not the circles you or I move in. 
 

Interesting comment you made when you state “in the city it’s a different story” considering in England 82% of the population is urbanised.

It does matter the circles we move in, how many spongers do you know, or have come across, I'd dare bet it's very few?
