Theland, //So I plead hard up?//
Yes, Theland, you do. A little while ago you said you live in joggers because you can’t afford trousers but that wasn’t true - and you have been known to say - and I quote - //I live in poverty. using a borrowed computer to play here. Reality is so so harsh //
//And why would I demand the fruits of others labours?//
Why indeed, Theland, but you do. If you didn’t you wouldn’t bleat on about not be ‘given’ anything.
Incidentally, if you think 40% tax on a salary of just over £50,000 is low, you’re either living in Cloud Cuckoo Land or you're rubbish at sums. You, in the past, having been one of those high earners you now so despise, I shouldn’t have to ask you to think about it - but I will.
Incidentally, talking tax, I would remind you that Gordon Brown abolished the low tax rate for low earners as well as rifling the working man's pension pot. Bet you voted for him.
