Of course, this was always there, even under the Tory government that you voted for. Just an increase in the cash 'reward'.

Ah HMRC boy, nope I voted reform last time as I’ve told you several times. Is not tax in jock land devolved by the way ??. As a person who was conned by Sturgeon I’d not be making my mouth go if I were you lad. 
Anyway SP I see the biggest issue for productivity has been revealed to be the “ public sector” if you spent a bit less time on here do you think that might help??. 

 

There’s a nice little article from our Norwegian cousins, happily extracting oil and gas whilst we play net zero games, it shows commercial diving not the this Scuba/latex fantasy you keep droning on about.

Done the sums last night, broadly speaking they'll be taking the same tax from me as before.

 

What did amuse me though is that -even before she had stood up to speak- the Daily Mails calculator was headlined by "How much MORE will YOU pay"... not saying they are biased but... in their actual calculator when I looked they (and the Telegraph) only asked about what will put your tax bill up so any gains from it were not included "Do you drive an electric car" but forgetting fuel (petrol) duty being frozen as an example.

 

Bit of a bland budget to be honest, nothing to get too wound up about, and nothing to get excited about either.

Get back to work you lazy bugger. 
Labour look after the public sector shirkers that’s for sure.

This was a funny way of putting it.  What she actually has done is end the fuel duty freeze which has been in place for 16 years (as from next September).

But somehow she spun that as a freeze on fuel duty!

[Steven P]

That's true, but... all politicians change their minds yearly, I wouldn't be surprised if they reinstate it next year as a 'isn't the government wonderful to you' gift though. I tend to only count for the coming year because I have no clue what they will change in the next budget.

 

 

(edit here: With inflation I guess you could say that fuel duty being frozen for the year, not being linked to inflation makes it a drop 'in real terms'... but would be grasping at straws to say that... though I have a vague memory of about 10 years ago a chancellor trying to sell us that line)

I was wondering how SP could read anything else into it apart from what you have just described.

OMG you used the fuuuuuuuucccckkkkiiiinnnggg edit function 😳😳😳😳😳

Your post is pure shite, you were wrong initially about the fuel freeze. 
Now get back to your spreadsheet you bone idle bugger. No wonder the public sector is a millstone around the next of taxpayers.

You’d be very surprised lad 🤔👍
There’s not much on here that is able to rile me up, possibly sick buggers like  Manco and SP when they stoop to bringing daughters into the argument.
