My little brother is in town tonight so I'm going out for drinks with him. He's a super Blairite 'David Miliband should come back' kinda guy, so that'll be fun.



He's the kid in this picture. I reckon Blair mind-controlled him.

At least he's voting Labour.

I think the most revealing thing here is that there must definitely be a Tory talking points memo, and Liz Truss - for she is a moron - is really bad at seguing into on-message soundbites.

Anyone here familiar with how election rules play with party political materials? these "[constituency] Future" fake newspapers are hilariously dodgy and I've got an itching recollection that someone's been slapped for similar before. I don't care about them getting slapped, but the constituency campaign team here want to mass report any obviously criminal campaigning and drag media attention onto "the tories are cheating, again" in between whatever else they're doing

I'm working with some masterful canvassers here and I'm pretty sure we've turned a fair few undecideds as well as possibly even turning a few tories away from voting, you love to see it

Also, forcing a minority to stop speaking their language and stop performing religious ceremonies in the ways they want to is not Apartheid, I guess.

I'm currently having a last-minute attack of nerves before I pop my canvassing cherry this afternoon. It might have been exacerbated by someone in the office exclaiming that "Corbyn is an anti-semitic bastard".

This whole election process is exhausting, even from the fringes. It must be horrendous for people in the thick of it.

Isn't 'tax efficient' just another way of saying they're doing their best to avoid paying the same rate of tax that non business owners pay?

Yeah, this the main reason I think Labour has blown the 'richest 5%' line. Bringing dividend taxation in line with income tax is a good and necessary thing, but it will affect a huge number of people. As I've said before this is going to affect pretty much every contractor, yeah bitches I'm gonna quote myself

This guy posted:

All sounds sensible, and with the dividend tax changes and corporation tax going up to 26% it might finally get rid of the incentive for limited company contractors to pay out in dividends (not deducted from corporation tax, doesn't count for NI) rather than salary (which is counted against corporation tax and attracts NI) .

Specifically, currently it's 19% corporation tax plus 7.5% dividend tax on the first 40k then 32.5% for the rest.

Versus 25.8% joint NI costs plus 20%/40% income tax.

(Ignoring nuances like minimum salary for NI contribution years etc)

So this is actually a level playing field now of 26% corporation / NI plus 20/40% income tax.

Nicely done.
