Ah, you’ve edited Deadly …….it’s bravo who’s angry.

Can’t he get his hands on a “Che Guevara” either ?

@ ernie, sorry, I edited but you missed it 🙂

Is it a kind of under garment?

Whilst you little Thathcherites are creaming yourselves over definitions, there are families of sailors who died on the Belgrano, who never got to see their loved ones again. Because some power-mad **** wanted to show how ‘tough’ she was. An act of complete cowardice.

Sorry, are “being a power-mad ***”, or indeed “showing how tough you are”Now written into the Geneva convention as war crimes? because unless they are, then you’re still talking shite by accusing her of being a war criminal…

Zulu; I’m not the one who needs to play with guns to make themselves feel all tough, mate.

Too **** right sonny – It’s like having two cocks. If one of your cocks could kill someone 😈

Napoleon complex

Hmm…

Napoleon complex is an informal term describing an alleged type of inferiority complex which is said to affect some people, especially men, who are short in stature. The term is also used more generally to describe people who are driven by a perceived handicap to overcompensate in other aspects of their lives….. It does not appear in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)

Is that why you play with guns then Labby? 😆

Maybe you should go and talk to someone about it. Might help.

Oops double post! Silly forum…

Bump glitch bump

You’ll always be one big cock to me! x

I’m not wearing one of those !!!

You’re certainly one of the biggest I’ve ever seen 😯

They come smaller than that ?!! 😯

Jesus Christ, I want to make love to a woman wearing a pair of those. 🙂

Are you trying to groom me Crikey?

I prefer partners that I don’t have to iron before sex, but thanks for the thought Grandad…

Crikey; if you’re above the age of consent, you might be a bit ‘old’ for Labby…

Jesus Christ, I want to make love to a woman wearing a pair of those.

I quite like the colour scheme. Kinda tarty and slutty… 🙂

I don’t think they’d suit you though. 😐

Can anyone think of a policy or action of her ANY government’s that was actually a good idea and did the country some good? I’m certainly struggling.

She reduced the top rate of income tax from a potential 98% depending on your circumstances, to 60% then 40%, and that certainly gets a big thumbs up from me.

Top rate wasn’t 98%

Kinda tarty and slutty…

Speaking of which, I haven’t had any begging emails lately mate. Where’s she hiding?

Top rate wasn’t 98%

In the United Kingdom, Margaret Thatcher came to power when top income tax rates were 83% – plus an ‘unearned income’ surcharge of 15% if the income derived from investments rather than from wages or salary – making the effective rate 98% for those living on pensions or other investment assets. She quickly reduced the top rate to 60%, and then to 40%. The ‘brain drain’ of ambitious Britons going to work overseas was staunched, while wealthy and prominent people like the actor Michael Caine and the novelist Frederick Forsyth returned from their tax havens. And for these and other reasons, the Treasury discovered that the top 1% and 5% of taxpayers were paying a far larger share of the tax burden than they had done before. Where the top 10% contributed 32% of the tax take before the cuts, they were contributing 45% of it afterwards.

Got a new bloke, in’t she. He works down the recycling place but I know he’s selling hookey booze and cigs round the back though. I had toyed with the idea of grassing him up, cos that’s the spiteful sort of little sod that I am, but the nipper needs shoes, so I thought it best to keep schtum.

So the top rate wasn’t 98% then.

There was an additional tax if there was ‘unearned income’

Which is why I said “potential” & “depending on your circumstances” 🙄

If you two don’t start insulting each other with a bit of imagination this thread will never get to 1000 posts…

Are you saying that the basic rate isn’t 20% then ?

After all, people then pay a further 17.5% tax (soon to be 20%) when they spend their money.

So what’s the basic rate now ?

Stop it.

I caveated my original comment accordingly. You mis-read it and jumped in.

Back on topic. Maggie introduced the Right To Buy for council tenants. That was a good thing.

That was a good thing.

Yeah, cept there was no plan to use the revenue raised to create more social housing, pushing people into private rented accomodation, which now costs the nation many times more. Great idea. 🙄

Stop it.

No, I want to carry on.

But let me caveat my original question…….what is the potential basic rate now ? …..bearing in mind that the average person pays VAT on most of their weekly wages.

Or isn’t there anything about that in the Adam Smith Institute’s propaganda bumpf you’ve been reading ?

Ideal time to re-introduce the workhouses then

No, I want to carry on.

I made no mention of VAT in my original post. I was pointing out the benefits of reducing abhorrent income tax charges

Maggie introduced the Right To Buy for council tenants. That was a good thing.

In what way?

The only benefit I saw was : “a big thumbs up from me”

So what you are saying is that the ‘basic rate’ is just that …….’the basic rate’.

The top rate however, is variable…….’the top rate plus whatever you fancy adding to it’.

That seems fair.

For a Tory.

In what way?

My grandparents were able to buy their house. That was a good thing.

For a Tory.

no denying it. I’m a staunch tory.
