Jeremy Corbyn: budget shows Tories are unfit for office.

To reply to something you have only just heard daunting for a politician.

JC right on the money though and the government looking pathetic.

He repeats this mantra time after time on any subject, I quite liked him as the plucky underdog earlier in the year but he is becoming a bit dreary and uninspiring.

Oh for a charismatic centrist politician to pull us all together.

How is JC on the money?

JC lost his composure, and resorted to shouting. He is right about social care though which needs reviewing ASAP. I don't like his repetitive style of debating though, it's like he isn't heard so needs to keep repeating.

Nice to see the Government taking some positives from the Labour manifesto. And good for me regarding stamp duty considering I am close to buying!

All in all, no drastic changes, but a better budget.

Let us know if there's an obvious amount on top of asking prices, at least equal to, or maybe more, on what you've seen recently.

Well Mugabe just resigned could probably get him on loan.

The chancellor's incompetence is mind-blowing.

Surely he will have checked what the result of such a tax reduction would be and have been advised it was of very little use.

Brexit nuts love tax cuts.

I think it's tragic that we live in a world where we judge politicians on their delivery at PMQs over their policies.

Some would still rather a blairite psychopath who's obsessed with money and wages war at the first opportunity, claims to stand against the elite but is an advocate for the exact same corruption & deceit that has caused misery for so many real people.

Mental

This is a historical problem.

If history started in 2010 I would agree with you.

There is only a gain if and when you sell it, it's market value isn't a gain even if it's more than you paid for it . A car is also an asset but you don't pay CGT on that if it appreciates, amongst other things.

Rent is a gain derived from owning the asset.
