Off Topic Tax Payers Alliance Don't you just love em

They are wanting Pensioners "benefits" cut now for the following reasons;

"Mr Wild, who is research director of the think tank which campaigns for lower taxes and highlights examples of Government waste, said the cuts should be made "as soon as possible after an election for two reasons".

"The first of which will sound a little bit morbid - some of the people... won't be around to vote against you in the next election. So that's just a practical point, and the other point is they might have forgotten by then."

He added: "If you did it now, chances are that in 2020 someone who has had their winter fuel cut might be thinking, 'Oh I can't remember, was it this government or was it the last one? I'm not quite sure.' "

He forgot to add that a few of them who had the winter fuel cut may die of hyperthermia so they would definately forget plus that added bonus of not having to pay their pensions so its a win win situation no doubt

Pack of Wan*ers

 

Iain Duncan Smith will be livid he didn`t think of it.
Set of arseholes they really are.

 

I don't think they would have dared come out with that even in Thatchers Hayday

 

Probably not. This lot are taking it to a whole new level.

 

Unfortunately Labour, Corbyn and the rest of the Loonies on the left of politics are not able to mount a viable opposition that normal people would vote for.

Bart.

PS - I am no Tory !!!!

 

I am talking about the Loonies on the right here

 

Loonies on both sides.

The way I look at things at the moment is it's every man for himself.

 

wow, I might vote for them, not because I agree with them, but it's the first time I've heard politico's being so brutally honest.

Do non -Christians get a 'Christmas bonus' I wonder?

 

If you are to receive a final salary works pension.
After April 2016 your o.a.p.will be reduced.
That means all public sector workers will receive a reduced o.a.p.

 

Further to my quote.
If you worked and paid super anuation in and froM the early seventies till now it will apply to you.
You need to remmember people took out these super anuation because they were on a low wage and when they retired it would boost there o.a.p.
Because THEY NEVER WORKED IN HIGHLY PAID INDUSTRY OR EARNED ANY BIG MONEY.NOW THEY ARE GOING TO BE PENALISED.

 

Elections over life. ****ing disgusting. I hate this country, I hate humanity, I hate life.

 

Don't hate life funky. Hate the torys


Autom sprau

 

Having a dreadful day fella but that just drew a smile, cheers fella.

 

It's only right that public sector workers should receive a lower state pension because people like me who have worked all our lives have paid into their pension scheme for them via our taxes.

 

Absolutely rubbish local council workers payed a vast proportion of there low income to have the privalage of a final salary pension YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.other workers not paying super anuation in other work places were earning a lot more money.it nowt to do with taxes.

 

Well said Vince. My RAF salary was suitably abated (officialese) when I went onto a pensionable engagement. Working it out as best as I could I am just about to break even on contribution/pension balance after 28 years of pension that was suitably taxed until I left UK.

 

Yeh mate people spout off and they don't know what there are talking about

 

But did you not realise that all public sector workers don't pay anything in and get massive payouts when they retire - you need to read up on it mate just look in the mail, express, times, sun or any of the other tory influenced a**ewipes

 

There you go you don't know what your talking about.public sector workers pay a high percentage of there wages in super anuation.furthermore there wages was set low to include the payments thus recieving a percentage lower pay than any other in there trade

 

Vince - I was being sarcastic
