So?

It's Gordy Broon's prebudget speech day............................... we are all going to suffer as a result. It is almost guaranteed that the price of fuel will increase again but what about Excise Duty on vehicles that emit greater amounts of CO2? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Hmm, good question. They say it's all about Brown setting out his "green" credentials, but it's not going to win him any votes come election time. Someone should run over him in their Hummer.

Did anybody hear the GB interview with James Naughtie on Today on R4 this morning? He totally avoided answering any of the questions that the pensioner wanted answered and told us all about how brilliantly he, the Chancellor, had made our economy............................... he won't be getting many pensioner voters on the strength of his replies! Somebody emailed the programme and suggested that all pensions should be increased in line with MP's pay - why just pensioners, I wish my payrises reflected MP's, civil servants and local goverement employees payrises. Last year I was grudgingly offered 1% conditional on giving up 21 days of my 182 days a year leave to going on training courses and head office visits, it has worked out at no payrise at all. This year we were offered 0.5% but on reflection (threat of a strike!)the senior bods in the office claimed they had made a mistake in the calculations and managed to find 2.5% - this from a company that has just made $5 billion profit!!

As they say "There are only 2 things that are certain in life.............. Tax and Death" 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Pelyma - you should be grateful that you only have to pay 40%................ I am resident in the UK, employed through the Germany offices a Dutch based company owned in Denmark. Thankfully the companies are all based in the EU and, as a seafarer there are special rules for us so I can choose which country's tax I pay and the UK's is the least for me by a long way!
My brother works for a Swedish company, through their UK office and has been working in Norway, USA, Mauritania (West Africa), Cameroon and Nigeria recently and he has had to pay not only UK tax but also the taxes of all the other countries he has worked in in proportion to his earnings made in those countries............ and he has no option of opting out of any of them, must be great to be on a film star salary like he is!
Thank goodness for good payroll accountants who can sort out all of these things because I could never work it all out for myself. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Appologies in advance!!!

Its BO***CKS!

We, who drive so called 'Non Green' drive more miles, in thirstier cars, to earn more money, and pay more fuel duty............THAN, the sciving poncing idiots in clapped out old bangers who claim it all off the state!

Therefore we we are all paying loads more bloody green tax in the first place.

Therefore it a safe deduction that Brown is.........as we all know........An Overzelous Tax Tw**!!!

Nuff said!
