This is something that could be interesting. There were murmurs from within the party that some felt Starmer should have taken a firmer line on those rebelling on the welfare bill, including removing the whip.
There's potential that becomes a riskier option in the future. May be a small possibility but there's still a possibility of someone making the switch to this new party.
Kinda hope it doesn't just fizzle out if for that reason alone, might make things a bit more interesting.
You need to factor in NI and SFE repayments too. I maxed out my pension contributions to reduce my tax/SFE and NI.Time to cut down on the avocados and Netflix my friend

My salary that is in that bracket would be taxed over 50%. 40% income tax, 15% NI and an additional 9% on the SFE. Many middle class professionals are being taxed close to 55-65% on relatively modest wages.
The ‘fiscal drag’ of freezing the tax band is a real accounting trick and it’s toxic. If the tax threshold is never going to moved, just scrap it and introduce a lower tax band.
Well off the top of my head there was the faux bullshit about her being too scared because people weren't wearing face masks.
Murky lobbying to increase spending on public services, what will those socialist be up to next?
They should be lobbying to transfer public money to their mates private companies like real MP’s.
Fuckinf murky lobbying my arse.
The middle class leftists types are driven more by envy of the rich than the downtrodden poor in my view.Don't put that on here, people on here will just demand you get taxed more because you're wealthy and they love a bit of spite

I'm not a higher rate tax payer, and pay the minimum into my pension at the moment as I can't afford more (the joys of having to pay a couple of grand a month for my Dads care, creating a nice big pile of debt) but even then by the time the various deductions are made you've lost over 25%.You need to factor in NI and SFE repayments too.

Breaking news. Labour has a relationship with the unions.Its to do with a personal relationship and union lobbying Tony. Still not surprised you will defend her.

She is not trying to enrich herself, family members or friends. She’s trying to achieve extra funding to the fire service, frankly a job all MP’s should be doing. Especially against the backdrop of austerity which cut funding to the fire service something like 14% in actual terms, any increases since lag behind inflation so are cuts in real terms and a report out last year found the majority of fire stations to be crumbling. It’s a catastrophe the state the fire service and who an MP is married to is irrelevant. She’s working in the public interest which is what she should be doing. Unless of course you’re immune to the effects of RTA’s, fires etc.

My middle class life is a world away from that of my parents. As time goes by you can really feel the drag downwards.
Wrong or lying?Well off the top of my head there was the faux bullshit about her being too scared because people weren't wearing face masks.
Reform fighting hard on the pressing issues in Warwickshire
the idea you need a vote to decide on this is rather silly. After all, did they have a vote to fly the Ukraine or pride flags in the first place?
Using that logic, why not just accept the request? Let Reform win their ‘silly game’ rather than refusing and letting them play the victim to energise their supporters.Isn't the silly part that anyone gives a sh*t about a few flags flying from buildings they never see or visit?
Using that logic, why not just accept the request?
because showing support for marginalised people is a positive thing and calling bullsh*t on the nationalist playbook is important. What's the argument for flying national or regional flags? Are we worried people will forget which country or city they're in without them?
Let’s flip the script, if a left leaning council requesting the flying of the pride flag and this request was rejected by an unelected bureaucrat, would you be ok with that?because showing support for marginalised people is a positive thing and calling bullsh*t on the nationalist playbook is important.

Youd have thought if you were at Glastonbury last week you’d entered Palestine
Let’s flip the script, if a left leaning council requesting the flying of the pride flag and this request was rejected by an unelected bureaucrat, would you be ok with that?
After all, who gives a shit about flags?
There’s only conflict because the council CEO refused the request. There would be no ‘culture war’ if there wasn’t a song and dance about the refusal.Fucking flags man. We aren’t Americans. Lazy fuckers get your own culture war.
yes, it's fine because who gives a fuck about flags
Let’s flip the script...
Hilarious, are you seriously suggesting she is trying to make money out of being married to a fireperson union rep and him getting a small salary increase? Could it not be she sees it as a vital role and knows more about the job and risks associated with it than perhaps you and I do?So nothing to do with marrying a member of said union. Of course not Tony.
Imagine saying the state of the local service provision, the public realm, social care and deciding the most important issue is whether or not the council house is flying a flag. Stupid fucking cunts.There’s only conflict because the council CEO refused the request. There would be no ‘culture war’ if there wasn’t a song and dance about the refusal.
Again, if it’s just ‘fucking flags’, then accept the request and move on. The refusal only energises Reform supporters and let their leadership claim they’re being undermined by unelected forces.
I don’t think for a moment the left would quietly accept that. With all due respect.

I mean, yes, if they just randomly went and demanded it without using the proper process I'm sure most people would be perfectly OK with it being refused.Let’s flip the script, if a left leaning council requesting the flying of the pride flag and this request was rejected by an unelected bureaucrat, would you be ok with that?
