Re: Starmer’s chronicles
Quadrupling tax on Audi/BMW drivers, Premiership footballers, Investment *ankers , Torygraph readers, and traffic wardens, should solve things.

That’s what I like about socialists full of initiative and inventive ideas to simulate growth.
No, time after time after time…..only one idea.
More tax. That’s all they’ve got every time.

I thought you were a Torygraph reader, Mr K, albeit you don't pay for it like the evil socialist shareholder you are?

Re: Starmer’s chronicles
And now the doctors are at it again, i thought Starmer had fixed this problem when he caved in to their last demands
Doctors and teachers in England and Wales were offered a 4% pay rise by the government, 2.8% above what it had originally budgeted and just above the current rate of inflation.
But both the British Medical Association (BMA) and National Education Union (NEU) threatened strike action following the announcement, claiming the increases did not account for historical pay freezes.
The BMA is calling for a salary increase of 29.2% to bring salaries back to "full pay restoration". The union argues this is the level at which pay has declined in real terms since 2008, when adjusting for inflation.

29% i smell another black hole brewing

Re: Starmer’s chronicles
The Government are not sausages to the demands of Doctors. They will immediately cry, do a U-turn, indulge themselves in some freebees in consolation and then, pay up.
And we all know who will foot the bill.

Re: Starmer’s chronicles
I'd like a 29% pay rise please. In fact 4% would be nice.

Bit of a change from the Tory view of “take from those who don’t have enough money and give it to those who have too much”.

Or like the austerity years take it from the disabled, poor, unemployed, elderly and generally anyone not a millionaire.
