You know there's an election looming when...

The only true way to raise wages is by increasing productivity.

Which can only be done by growing the economy, austerity as we know shrinks economies, that's why most of Europe is stuffed at the moment.

Funnily enough, it can also be done by varying the proportion of profits that goes to shareholders vs. the proportion that goes to workers.

Not everybody knows that.

Ask Philip Green's wife, Tina. She knows.

Sadly the company was so short of money that it couldn't afford to fund the employee pensions scheme.

Can anybody guess how much UK tax was paid on the dividends?
 
"Dividends paid to holders of UK shares jumped to a record high in the first three months of the year, putting investors on track for £100bn in payouts this year.


The payments rose 15.7% to £19.7bn, easily a first-quarter record, according to data tracked by Link Asset Services.


Regular dividends have risen every year since the aftermath of the global financial crisis in 2009. Between that year and 2018, total dividends paid to shareholders grew by 85%."

I think we can all agree that wages grew by 85% between 2009 and 2018.

Didn't they?

Do you think he'll be selling one of his yachts and giving the previous dividends back or baling the company out?

He won't.

I don't know and I don't care John, I don't like the guy or his practices. Maybe we should all vote for Corbyn and destroy these nasty rich folk.
 
HM Revenue & Customs this week published an analysis of the income tax paid in the UK by salary band, region and gender. In total we paid £174bn income tax in 2016-17, the latest year for which figures are available. But of that, £52.5bn – nearly a third of all tax raised – was paid by the 381,000 taxpayers who earn more than £150,000 a year. The tax paid by those 381,000 individuals (overwhelmingly male) was more than all the income tax paid by the first 20 million taxpayers.

Why does steptoe want rich people to pay even more tax?
Ans = Because he is dirt poor himself and doesn't like rich people.
And his poor followers have been succoured into believing his lies.

You do spout garbage.

Im not a fan of Corbyn, but he is clearly not driven by money.
He doesnt dislike rich people, he dislikes a society that has inequality.

Corbyn wants to reduce poverty
Ryler likes poverty, he wants poor people to suffer more.

What is the matter with Ryler?

Why did Ryler join this forum just when the election is about to start and his posts are all anti Labour.

Mmmm is ryler a conservative campaigner
