OwlFancier posted:But even then what's the suggestion, that there's going to be a new tax band at 80k and it's going to be 25% which would be a massive cut? 25% higher? Putting the top rate at 70%? my best guess at something plausibly deniable that they can pretend they meant to say was that there will be at least 1 million people whose current overall tax rate (all tax paid/all income) will be over 25% when previously it was not. From my back of the envelope calculations that's people earning between roughly £68-75k? maybe that works out to 1,000,001 people or so i dunno e: it's some interval between the 94th and 96th percentiles for income, the true commoners here e2: i think i've hosed up my spreadsheet nobody quote this and hire a real accountant to do your taxes let this be a lesson for you Angepain fucked around with this message at 21:09 on May 22, 2017 |

Chip shops down south don't always remove skin from the fish before battering it.

Funny thing about chip shops: it's the only place where you'll indicate you want two of something by saying 'twice'. Like, 'cod and chips twice'.

I don't know where Jeremy Corbyn is right now or what he's doing but he's probably enjoying one of the best days of his life, certainly since becoming Labour leader, and I hope he's having a good time. Edit: If I had to live in London I'd probably live off Guinness because it's cheaper than most of the food.

Spag bog is like, the food I make because it does leftovers and I can eat it easy. It barely qualifies as real food. loving Christ. For £20 it better be made out of loving unicorns.

Reader comments in the Guardian and the FT AND the Daily Mail all strongly negative towards Theresa May tonight, that's... quite the spread of opinion. I mean, you'd kind of expect the Guardian to be against her but the other two?

Pistol_Pete posted:Reader comments in the Guardian and the FT AND the Daily Mail all strongly negative towards Theresa May tonight, that's... quite the spread of opinion. Being an important Tory is like being the whip hand of a dog sled pulled by rabid wolverines. Woe betide anything that lies in front of you but woe betide you if they sense the hand isn't strong. Labour is a stage coach where everyone sits comfortably and quietly so long as it's rattling along and then breaks out into a massive row as soon as it starts to slow down.

 How bad do you have to gently caress up as a Tory for even the Telegraph's resident poo poo cartoonist to rip on your policy? Their top article is about the Tory manifesto 'unravelling' too. This has not been a good day for them.

Remember at the start of the campaign when the Tory campaign was non existent and conventional wisdom was that before long they would get their poo poo together once they got a team in place? Considering they're still leading in the polls they really are panicking.
