    Don't need the EU to rob us, our own Government is quite capable, received news of my State pension increase in March, received notice of my new tax code in April, which completely wiped out the increase.

    That happened to me Ivan,
    I am now £3 a week less Net Pension than I was before. Pension up £2, tax up £5 =-£3 berstereds.
    Cameron was on TV saying everyyones Tax is being cut, They stand on TV and without any concience will tell a blatent Lie Then expect us to Vote for them, This is then utter contempt that politicians have for working people.
    as Rob says, Gordon Brown, [good Socialist is Gordon], robbed Millions of pounds off the Pension Funds.
    Now european berstereds,[ HOW I HATE EUROPE] are now doing it again.
    One day something BAD will happen to europe. fingers crossed.
    Brian.

    Brian it looks to me that our Treasurer is going to impose sanctions if not the same, similar where the pensioners are going to be worse off. We expected that to a certain extent due to the lavish overspending of previous governments. However there is at least one thing I am against and that is being taxed extra so some rich bitch can have a baby. Why should others have to pay for someone having a baby. If you cant afford it dont have. Go to a chemist or any public urinal and get a packet of condoms, or tie a knot in it. I am not interested in other peoples babies. The budget hasnt been declared yet, but as usual will probably follow yours in principle. That is the only thing lacking in this country, they think because other countries do something it is right. Getting more like the japanese everyday, imitate imitate imitate. Cheers John S

    Britain gives £10,500,000,000 IN OVERSEAS AID. Tho` one Report said £13,500,000,000

    Plus Military overseas aid on top of that but no figure so obviously many more millions of Tax Payers money with out our consent.
    While we have to have cuts in UK spending.
    The roads where I live are just like some Third world country, The waiting list for hospital treatment is getting longer due to lack of resources, I have been waiting for two months to have an hospital apointment, still waiting, in a lot of pain. I have paid Taxes and still am for 64 years and paid National Insurance for 50 years.
    so Cameron can give my money to China and other load of international Bums. It is time he was Sectioned under the Mental Health Act.
    Brian.

    Re previous... I have nothing against the family allowance as it stands, but am lead to understand maybe some living out here may be better knowledged on the subject than me, but the intent was to pay women on big salaries about 150,000 dollars whist they were indisposed, and this is on a budget deficit they are claiming they have to make up on. Myself think they should have the same as any other would be mother. 150,000 dollars is near enough 3 times the average wage of those working in shops and restaurants etc. It was one of the promises he went to the country with before being elected and should be the first one broken, he has I beleive dropped it down to 75,000 dollars under pressure from his own party, he should scrap it altogether. I voted for him for the promise he has kept re the illegal immigration which he has stopped, otherwise I would have voted for Clive Palmer who many call the buffoon, he"s not as daft as he makes out, the labour party no way when is run by the unions, which they will have that aroma there for the next 10 years at least. If as he promised to go to a dissolution of Parliament if he couldnt get what he advocated, if he still hangs on to the payments to the higher income levels proposed for the rich, he may find himself out of a job.

    UK pensioner tax allowance was £10,500 or there abouts, Clegg wanted the the tax threshold to rise for all, which it did to £10k, pensioners lost out as their tax allowance was cut by £500.
    So pensioners pay more tax while the rest pay less.
