Sunak pension tax raid
RupertT replied to Mikhail Liebenstein's topic in House prices and the economy
For the purposes of the LTA, DB pensions are valued at 20x the pension, so an £800k pot = £40k pension. -
Gordon Brown has a lot to answer for
RupertT replied to Warlord's topic in House prices and the economy
He only kept the Debt to GDP ratio down by using off balance sheet financing. Put PFI into your figures. -

RupertT replied to Warlord's topic in House prices and the economy
Now include PFI in your calculations. Brown was a fraud. Remember when he changed the definition of when the business cycle started in order to be able to fiddle his borrowing numbers? -

You can see the sign saying 73a on the left edge of the house. No.73 appears to be the 2/3 of the building to the right of the front door, while 73a is the part to the left. This would also fit with the garden photo which has a small walled garden for 73A and a larger L-shaped garden for no.73. -
Ed Balls: Labour Government Would Fast-Track The Mansion Tax
RupertT replied to interestrateripoff's topic in Politics
What I was getting at is that there is a deficit. Taxes don't cover spending and haven't for a long time. So setting up a new mansion tax may alter all sorts of things as per your post, but what it won't do is to lead to a straight equivalent reduction in a different tax. -

Ed Balls: Labour Government Would Fast-Track The Mansion Tax
RupertT replied to interestrateripoff's topic in Politics
Taxes collected via mansion tax means very slightly less government borrowing. It won't lead to any reduction in any other taxes unless there are significant changes in the country's economic circumstances. -

You need a 45% drop to get back to 2008/9 prices (81/181). An 80% drop would take you back to mid-90s prices -
I think I actually laughed out loud when I saw it.
