Current Affairs 2017 General Election

Did the SNP bloke just say Scotlands problem was folk leaving Scotland?

Not exactly a ringing endorsement of the SNP Government that.

Can't blame people want to leave really can you

These debates are absurd.

Fixed that for you mate.

"We've made a clear decision to protect the poorest"

@ToffeeTim you do realise that most companies are micro entities and as such will benefit from the small companies rate which will probably be 20/21%?
It will go back to the days of a sliding scale (used to be profits between 300k and 1.5 mil). This means more work for people working in tax, so pay rise for you mate.

Yeah but I definitely don't have faith in Corbyn to do so. Every corporation to him seems to be cut from same cloth.

Must say I enjoy the single main rate. Marginal relief calculations used to fry my head lol

Farron loves an anecdote..

One last thing about Corporation Tax.
It is not the true reflection of the tax burden in companies. Bear in mind Employers NI, which to all intents and purposes is a 13.8% tax on the employers levied on employees salaries. Similar applies to other countries, but not going to look them up.

These debates with so many on the stage are absurd.

Most people won't be watching the debate. The only thing that will be remembered about it after a couple of days is that Theresa May didn't turn up.

 

[ToffeeTim]

I stopped watching cause I'm bored. It's lame duck Theresa v lame duck economics imo.

Neither worth a vote.

Just reinforces my long held view that politicians of all hues are exceptionally poor at spending other peoples money.

They are all just spraying money around like two alley cats on heat. Utterly depressing.

Surprised they didnt invite Joey Barton. Its QT basically.

 

[ashwuk76]

Here is the security issue... queue nuttal saying round up people and put them in internment camps...

 

[bring the ghost on]

 

[Milkman]

Is this BBC moderator going to ask any follow up questions to Rudd, or is just Corbyn?

 

[Joey66]

Evidently my older brother informs me in the Labour manefesto the will be a land tax on your council tax ?
Is this true it's in the small print????
