[Mr K]

Income tax is due a rise, it hasnt been raised for 50 years, just cut. The state of the nations finances hasn't much to do with this Govt, who've been in a little over a year, but the last 20 years, and decisions made by the electorate.

With an ageing non productive population, increaded demands on the NHS/care systen, and a public that demand all this and more, but dont want to pay for it.

If they cut NI to protect those that bother to work then fair enough.
Its like when you go shopping, you don't get something for nothing, and if you want more, you have to pay more.
