    Default State pension

    I have just recieved my new State Pension from the Government for April 2015/6
    I have an increase of `Two Pounds a week,` Big Deal.
    As they take 22% off me in Tax, it is only less than £1 56p a week increase. So now I can buy three second class postage stamps. that should keep the wolf from the door.
    Cheers
    Brian

    You better hope that this crowd don't get in again Brian because next year they will be taking money off you.But never mind they will put the country back on it's feet so that's something to look forward to.

    Brian, Jim, You haven't exactly cleaned up unlike this fella,

    Sir James Dyson, vacuum cleaners


    The inventor of the bagless vacuum cleaner is worth up to £2.5bn and owns the £15m Dodington Park estate in Wiltshire. He set up a 1985 onshore children's trust to hold 30% of company shares. His spokesman said: "The trust was dissolved and the shares distributed to the beneficiaries." His wife and his three children, Sam, Jake and Emily (who runs a fashion shop in Notting Hill, west London), also appear as past beneficiaries of a offshore trust in the Channel Islands. The spokesman said that trust was never actually used, had no assets and had not avoided tax. In 2010, Dyson transferred shares offshore to Malta, another tax haven. Following criticism, the move is being unwound. The firm said: "Dyson is a UK owned company, and paid taxes of over £100m in 2013. The administrative companies referred to in Malta will soon be inactive. This is where the extra ££££££££££ Should be coming from along with a few more. Terry.




    This footnote was added on 21 July 2014 and amended on 22 July. The Channel Islands offshore trust referred to in the section on Sir James Dyson was set up by Orbis Trustees Guernsey Limited. Kleinwort Benson purchased Orbis after the trust was wound up in 1999. Dyson is not and never has been a client of Kleinwort Benson.

    In the words of David Cameron, The last government failed to fix the roof while the sun shined,
    Since he took power the U.K. Borrowing has never been greater, Afraid the hole in the roof has only widened Mr Cameron.

    And if you vote in Balls & Milliband there will be more borrowing.
    Remember Labour abolished the 10p tax rate band for the low paid.
    Brown raided the pension industry funds ruining many pensions in the process.

    Although the 10p tax rate was abolished it ended up with people paying more tax.

    I most certainly cannot see that terrible duo, Miliband and Balls do anybetter, Laurel and Hardy would do a better job of destroying the country than those two.
    Both are Millionaires from Privilaged backgrounds, the same as Cameron and Osborne, all went to the same kind of Universities where they are all trained to look down on the working classes.
    There is just No One to vote for these days.
    There was a family? on TV night before last. A mother, her son aged 34, has never worked, his `girl` friend who he is going to marry, is 61 years old, older than his own mother,
    They get £1,850 a month Benefits between them, All Tax Free., They all three chain smoke fags at £8 a packet, he sups cans of ale inbetween fags.
    and the berstereds make me pay tax on my miserable MN pension that I bought with my own money.
    If I had gone on the ale and never paid for a Pension, I would be on Benefits and it would be Tax Free.
    Tonight again three families with 19 kids between them one gets £35,000 a year TAX FREE, they all have free SEVEN Seater cars, All have Tattoos, one woman went in and had more, and paid a fortune for it.
    One man smoking, never worked for ten years, said he was disabled but had all these young kids under the age of ten so if he can do a load of shagging then he could work, he got a new 7 seater car for free, He plays Poker on a 50 inch TV screen, paying by card, has an Ipad and a Lap top computer, mobile phone etc.
    All things I cannot afford, because I bought a pension and pay Tax.
    They should all pay taxes on their Benefits. Why are they Tax free when they get thousand of pounds more than me and I have to pay Tax. I cannot afford to smoke or sup all kinds of ale in cans at home. I cannot afford Tattoos, I cannot afford a new Seven seater car, mine a small KIA is now 11 years old. I try to keep it running.
    I have paid Taxes since 1950 and NI for 50 years and this helps to subsidise the Bums who have never worked or paid anything into the system.
    They do not even pay Council Tax, I have to pay £1500 a year out of my Taxed Pension.
    The Party that taxes these slobs will get my vote.
    I believe the Benefit Bill is around 13,000,000,000 Pounds a year. That is one of the reasons the Country is suffering. We cannot afford it.
    Brian.

    just a thought but could it be that the benefit seekers are more numerous than the folks paying tax .....or have we not reached that point yet......but no need to worry if laurel and balls get in that will soon be the case.......regards cappy
