Mansion Tax - www.skynews.com
 
On www.skynews.com , it states that Mr Osborne will not introduce a Mansion Tax.

Simple reason for that if he did it would end the donations from Multi Millionaires into the coffers of the Tory Party, Its OK to hit the overstretcehd pockets of the everyday working person, but not the people who get away with millions of pounds in umpaid tax from the friends of The Tory Party.:mad:

Not stupid are they.

No mansion tax but it's ok because more welfare cuts are coming keep remembering people "were all in it together".

They cut the welfare.
go back in and cut some more.
then think of what to do next and cut some more off the welfare.

Britain is going to be really fun soon.

Re: Mansion Tax - www.skynews.com
 
A mansion tax would give practically nothing to the treasury ,it will only be of use if the owner sells the property .The treasury would be far better off sorting out the tax once and for all to make sure everyone pays the right tax

It is also very unfair ,if someone has worked all their life to be able to afford a nice house then over a period of years the area changes and the house prices are inflated why should that person have to pay extra tax on the house should he want to sell it .

If the rich people can pay little or no tax because they are able to hire the best accountants then what makes people think those same accountants won't find a way around this brainless idea

Perhaps not, but it would give at least some credence to the "we're all in this together" claim. From where I'm standing, it looks a lot as if "we're very much not all in this together at all".

Conservative conference: Cameron in benefit cuts warning

Further cuts to welfare, including curbs on housing benefit, may be needed to help fight the deficit, David Cameron has warned.

Speaking on first day of the Conservative Party conference, the prime minister said housing benefit may be reviewed for under-25s.

He promised "further action" to ensure the rich "pay their fair share".

But senior Tories have ruled out a tax on expensive properties or a one-off "wealth tax" backed by the Lib Dems.

Nope, I think it's a true reflection of his limited intellect as evidenced by 99.99999999% of his postings. :D

Anyway I'm delighted that my lavish, inherited family pile Osem Towers isn't going to cost me any more... :D

Yes. Only Tories live in large houses, politicians of all other hues live in terraced houses near t'pit with their whippets and flat caps. :rolleyes:

Quote:
Ed Miliband has made a series of shrewd moves in the housing market, which have made him more than £100,000 in profit and taken him to a £1.6million house in a leafy area of north London.

He and his brother, David, signed a “deed of variation” along with their mother, Marion, following the death of their father Ralph, an influential Marxist academic, in 1994.

This gave them each a 20 per cent stake in the four-storey house in Edis Street, reducing the inheritance tax eventually payable on the estate.
:shocked:

Tax avoidance from the labour leader? Tut, tut, tut.

The refusal of introducing a mansion tax is a less to do with trying to help Tory donors and more to do with it being a crap idea.

Now now Derek you are joining Hugh in using fact as an argument against Arthur's rants, you know it will never work. :LOL:

It's an idea designed to appeal to the likes of drivel-mongers like Arthur who ignore the blatant hypocrisy, buy into all the usual rhetoric and vote the way they always do.

Re: Mansion Tax - www.skynews.com
 
To everyone on this site, as soon as l saw it on SKYNEWS, l placed it on this thread.

I SAW it on the news and placed it on the thread. They have NOT said ONE word on how they will tackle how to stop the rich on getting away with paying tax. Most of the millionaires in this country pay there staff a pittance of a wage and they make a small fortune and put it in off shore bank accounts.

We already know that Osborne is a multi millionaire and he is hitting the poor yet again as they cannot answer back.

I can just see Cameron at a dinner in London talking to millionaires ' I will introduce a scheme where all the people in this hall, will have to pay more tax, The hall will empty straight away and all donations will stop. And then he will change his mind and the following morning he will introduce a new tax to hit the oworking class, thats how him and his party works.

Do i take it you don't mind the Labour Millionaires. So your on the Labour Way "Whats yours is mine but what mines my own" :rolleyes:

Course he doesn't. Even after more than a decade of lies, spin, sleaze and hypocrisy he won't acknowledge they exist because to do so would further reveal his utterly blinkered partiality and destroy his own argument.

don't worry arthur ,it was cleggs idea and clegg says he will make sure it gets through so you have nothing to worry about because we all know how much influence he has

Some interesting facts in this six month old article.

http://www.propertywire.com/news/eur...203216327.html

From next year, properties over £2 million will have a 7% Stamp Duty (after a 5% Stamp Duty was introduced this year on houses over £1 million).

That doesn't seem to back up Arthur's rants....

I hope they cut it deep enough so I don't have to queue so long at the bar during the daytime in Wetherspoons.

Arthurgray50@blu 09-10-2012 23:06
Re: Mansion Tax - www.skynews.com
 
I listen to everything, but sometimes l cannot get back straight.

My personnel feeling is that as l said in the posting that they won't hit the rich who pay into there coffers' but they will hit the poor again.

Well l was right, they will hit the poor and vulnerable again, how much more pain can they take.

Hugh 10-10-2012 00:23
Re: Mansion Tax - www.skynews.com
 
Arthur, what about the increase in Stamp Duty for expensive houses - how does that correlate with your hypothesis?

I'll bet everything I own Arthur that they have a article about it on the Sky News website. "Saw it" on Sky News is a pointless reply - just post the bloody link and save somebody else doing it...you were getting the hang of it at the start of the year. Has the new years resolution worn off that quick??

/Rant over.

Re: Mansion Tax - www.skynews.com
 
1)As has been pointed out this is an old thread and Arthur has been trying to provide links recently.
2) There is a topic which is not Arthur's ability to post links so can everyone please stick to it.
