Feedback wouldn't get as many bites on there though, he's certainly working his way through his old favourites in this thread .

Whilst I'm well aware of the report it is clear you're not aware the OTS is not part of the government and is independent. Sunak may follow their recommendation, but good luck convincing the Tories to vote for tax rises.

How much of a stimulus to the economy was lowering the highest band of income tax?

I don't know the exact figures but I do know that when Thatcher removed surtax significantly more tax was collected from the very wealthy.

Yes, if there was such thing as a Feedback drinking game, we'd be pissed by 12.30.

Mentioning Thatcher instead of answering the question. That's 2 double whiskies. This could be a fun thread!

why are we taking it easy?

Are you factoring in all the other costs involved in an investment made on the other side of the border ? Would it still be a 32k saving ? Seems a little simplistic/convenient.

The difference between setting up in Sedbury/Beechley and Chepstow is a river

How about petrol/diesel, I thought we were still a net importer of those

And you'd have to assume that by 2030 the covid restrictions would be over

Not at present, the UK has a surplus of crude oil. I'm not sure why we are exporting rather than stockpiling, but thats another conversation.

And its bold of you to assume Boris and Co will have a handle on this pandemic by 2030.

You'll be disagreeing with most peoples opinions on the subject

The stupid housing system in this country , where everyone is pushed the dream of home ownership is one of the main reasons why our economy shifts from boom to bust so often .

I would rather have Welsh Labour in power than the tories lead by that Paul Davies or Andrew rt Davies, he's just a rich landowner with no interest in ordinary people

[Its been emotional]

Working class people have suddenly become middle class in their eyes, laughable really.
But with the Tory spun media controlling the masses and making working class people think they are doing really well and making them think that they are middle class it will only get worse.
At least you have a title of Manager pinned to your chest.

Just looking at RT Davies you can see he's got an additional cock on his forehead that Drakeford is missing.

Didn't realise until recently Mark Drakeford was a Corbyn backer , both from the Momentum grassroots world . Thought he was more of a centralist .
