>Who cares? The middle class is dead anyway. I doubt "young professionals on 80k" are much of a voting bloc anymore.
Well brushing aside the fact that all tax rises will mean less money in the pocket of people who earn their way which itself is illegitimate imo, the average wage in London is 66k. The higher rate kicks in at 50k. There are genuinely going to be a lot of young professionals feeling an even bigger squeeze and for what?
>This will be the worst one, will fuck retail and hospitality
Will fuck everything.
>Goodbye boomer vote
Huh? Boomers aren't getting the inheritance, boomers don't give a shit about taxes that impact younger generations. But the threshold is 325,000, which basically means anyone whose parents own a home will be hit with it and it's likely going up, not good.
>Goodbye millionaire vote
Something tells me Labour isn't too popular with them anyway.
>Good. Even from a non-selfish perspective it will just put the cost of crime and policing through the roof.
You serious lad? Welfare enables crime on a mass scale and is also going to millions of people who are obviously defrauding the system or who should be all accounts not be accessing it.
>Why are they obsessed with this? I've never met anyone IRL who cared about climate change. My conspiracy is that it's really about reducing geopolitical reliance on oil.
Ideological capture. They think it's a moral good.
>Thatcherism is what got us into this mess.
Wrong.
>I hate em too but how else are we going to prop up GDP?
Call me old fashioned but I find that having an actually productive economy is probably the best way.
