Seems the Tory mayoral candidate who thinks homeless people should save for a deposit has other scorching hot takesquote:The key thing about poverty and poor people is that poverty is as much about mindset as it is about money. If you give poor people lots of money, they buy things, and not always what they need; they buy what they want.” Beginning to think this guy might be a massive oval office.

sinky posted:Seems the Tory mayoral candidate who thinks homeless people should save for a deposit has other scorching hot takes "If you give poor people lots of money, they buy things, and not always what they need; they buy what they want.” at no point in the history of the UK have the poor ever been 'given lots of money' so fascinated to know what he's basing that take on. Are the "poor people" he's talking about working on minimum wage or just-about-surviving-for-now on UC? Both groups are objectively poor people.

It depends on whose taxes. Taxes on middle and lower income earners: yes, I think she’s right. Corporation tax and high earners: have at it. Corporation tax is only payable in profits, not revenues.

Replacing council tax with a 1% property tax doesn't seem like the worst idea and I can't wait to see how he instead makes it something that rewards landlords.

How To Lose Friends And Alienate People was made before Toby “came out” as a right-winger, so he was just a general knobhead journalist and as such was just about acceptable as a sympathetic character. Now he’s a murderer.

Either emergency services failed during what must of been a horrific time in the individuals trying to help, or a set of dirt bag lawyers is trying to exploit a grieving family to extract a pay out of some kind. Either way, horrendous.
