Why has this suddenly become a story? It was well known when Gordon F. Brown announced it a year ago, but no-one could be ar$ed to make a fuss about it. Typical useless opposition/press/media. Bunch of wastrels.
Oh, and let's get it clear, they have not abolished the 10% tax rate, it has been increased to 20%. The 22% rate is cut to 20%, and the 10% rate is increased to 20%, get it? Of course the MP's have to get by on only 20k towards their second mortgage and 4k for taxis to do the supermarket shopping, all out of our pockets. Hand me the flame thrower ................................

Apologies if this has already been pointed out but the sums are b*ll*cks...
Tax allowances have gone up for 2008/09 and will (almost certainly go up for 2009/10). The 10% rate has been abolished from today which does mean (I understand) that some low earners will pay more income tax... |

It's simple, last year you could earn your allowance, then some was taxed at 10%, then some at 22%, then the rest at 40%. Now you earn your allowance, then what was at 10% is now at 20%, then what was at 22% is now at 20% etc. The bit that used to be taxed at 10% is now taxed at 20%, What part of that equates to it being "abolished"? It's been increased to 20%. If the old rate was 10% and the new rate was 15% you wouldn't say it's been abolished, you'd say it was increased. The fact that it happens to be the same as the next rate up doesn't mean it's been "abolished". I just hate politicians, lying devious scheming spiteful thieving robbing gravy-train-riding trough-snouting ................................................ ![]()
