China is about to flood Europe with cheap leccy cars

They have been sending them to Europe for a while.

I had a Chinese made van and tbh it was probably the best van ( reliable) I have had ??

Not so much some of the cars. The service is much complained about too.

The general consensus is that, while some of the cars are good, and they are cheap to buy, there are reliability issues and the dealer back up and service cannot always be relied upon when you need it.

lowest unemployment.

But if you do a search, you will see I frequently complained about:
- Tax free pension caps - I can only pay £10k per year into my pension tax free, while everyone who pays vastly less tax, can save £60k tax free
- Lowering of 45% tax threshold - costs another few grand in tax every year
- Lowering of capital gains tax threshold.
- Loss of personal allowance.

But at least under the Tories we had more people in work, making a contribution.

Moaning biker.

Looks like Starmer can't add up either:

Ukrainian official says terms of minerals deal reached with US

The senior official tells the BBC the revised agreement has "a number of good amendments".

shame I thought it was a good idea.

Moaning biker.

you've literally moaned 4 times about my post.

And I'm the one moaning

 

[JohnD]

And I'm the one moaning

Correct

And you are moaning about being rich.

Not a sensible thing to moan about.

oh dear poor Rachel Reeve's is still getting her false claims scrutinised.

Rachel Reeves ‘wrongly claimed to have work published in leading economics journal’

Pressure growing on chancellor following allegations she exaggerated Bank of England experience on her CV

It’s odd how you never thought that when Conservatives were in power between 2019 and 2024 where they put £80b of tax rises in place.





Highest taxes for 70 years under Tories

So which tax did Rache cut?

And you are moaning about being rich.

Not a sensible thing to moan about.

He's telling you how it is..
The silly rhetoric on loop, from the same whiners is that any wealth the rich have is at the expense of the poor. A bankrupt argument.
It's like there should be guilt attached to success.
It isn't unfair that some are wealthier/more successful than others.
Trying to cliam it is is pathetic.
The tax/benefit system needs to be seen as fair. Sometimes that are steps in things, and so on , which definitely make it appear not to be.

whataboutery

Tories put £80b of tax rises in place since 2019, so the people claiming Labour are the party of high taxes need to look at the Tories record

but since you are an uninformed believer of trickle down economics and thinks cutting corporation tax creates loads of jobs..........you wont have any interest in facts or reality

 

[motorbiking]

So essentially you are saying the conservatives raised tax = bad. and labour raise tax even higher (and probably again in march) = good?
"wealth inequality" do you think everyone should have the same wealth, irrespective of effort?

it seems, this applies to you:

It turns out you are the one with the bankrupt argument and you are completely wrong

it looks like Starmer used the same maths as Jeremy Hunt when he claimed his cut to NI was "funded"

this is a really boring logical fallacy

there are 3 simple facts about wealth inequality in UK

1) UK has far higher levels of wealth inequality compared to most Western economies
2) UKs wealth inequality has grown massively over last 40 years
3) continuous transfer of assets from govt and ordinary people to the wealthy


I dont want everybody to have the same wealth.
I just want the UK to have a society where the majority of people can have a standard of living similar to other Western economies

I dont want people in full time jobs to be trapped in rent and running out of money every month, so they end up having nothing to eat when they get to their last few days before pay day.....................it seems you are happy with that situation

Imagine living in a country where an ordinary working man could afford to buy a house with a garden to live in with his family.

3) is not correct and you'll have to justify why 1 and 2, should result in a redistribution of wealth via taxes. The obvious solution is to enable people to have the skills they need to close the gap.

Plenty of places in the UK with affordable housing for ordinary working people.

I have relatives who work in factories who own their own homes.

If you can't get what you want in life, look in the mirror for the solution.
