How is that fair? Surely there is someone on here that can wax lyrical about the need for both direct and indirect tax for fiscal policy reasons and the regressive effect of a flat rate income tax. There are reasons why the tax structure is how it is and is similar in almost all countries.

How is that fair? It's not right either. You only pay higher tax over a certain threshold. It just means that all those people who seemingly have big pay packets don't take home as much as you might think.

I love the way people bandy around phrases like 'wealty' and 'rich' and 'regressive'. What you really mean is that you were happy when people with more money were paying more instead of you. Ooh, passion. My circumstances, and my financial situation which you don't know, are irrelevant. The poll tax is a regressive tax, simple as that. And people with more should pay more, moving everyone upwards and not just the wealthi(er). It's sensible for a peaceful and smooth functioning society without the chaos, anarchy, crime and looting. I agreed with the poll tax riots, but not the Duggan riots for a pair of trainers or a tv because of said drug dealer. Absolutely stupid and selfish someone at 18 on a couple of quid an hour in their parents or in a bed sit should pay equal to someone who moved into an expensive house on a good wage knowing then the rates were high. Just selfish.

Agreed with every word. Labour aren't really interested in the working class. We have to go back a long way for that now. They are interested in their socialist and now partial communist ideology. They are worse than the Tories, not because the Tories help the working classes directly but because Labour lie about helping them.....when in reality, screwing the economy and over crowding their living spaces with different non integrating cultures to boot worsens their lives considerably. Blair's so angry and desperate about Brexit because at the back of his mind he knows he's the most responsible for it.....Feck if it wasn't for Brown we'd be in the Euro.

It makes me particualrly annoyed when I hear Corbyn going on about the NHS.

Now I am no fan of Blair nor Brown (as PM) but those last two assertions are just not true. The fait accompli of both had its nascence under The Tories back in the 90's. Labour could have delayed for seven years Eastern Euro immigration but chose not to but it still would have happened in 2011 at the latest.
