interestrateripoff Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 That should really help get the economy going. Once more taxing the poor on spending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Executive Sadman Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Honestly though, i think we will see some actual tax rises and actual spending cuts filter through. The BTL clampdown and pensions limits are just the start. Sterling is weak, americans unlikely to do more easing, gidiot out of options.

dgul Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 You'll be relieved when it's raised to only 23% Indeed. 27% seems too high (for a single move anyway). We could easily get 22%-24% though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlon brando Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 It would be 22.5% or 25% or 27.5% cos that's how it works, always increments of 2.5 - it wouldn't go to 27% (but 27.5% sounds not unlikely) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
