I never mentioned anyone skimming or not paying their way, a lot of people have far more than tax on earnings to consider when voting, they'll be using foodbanks if Jeremy and his pals ever get power.

 

Total drivel.

Wishart's point of order was that the late announcement of a Friday sitting means considerable taxpayer expense given the hundreds of flights and trains that must now be rearranged, not to mention the cancellation of MP surgeries which usually take place on a Friday.

Given it's caused by the greatest political crisis since WW2 I think it was unfortunately timed.

These flights and trains will be fully flexible tickets. MPs surgeries will be annoying for some but thems the breaks.

John McDonnell's targets for tax increases are like people earning over 70k a year. Can't picture them queuing up at the foodbanks anytime soon (more's the pity).
Would people living in Scotland be shielded from these tax increases. Imagine if Scotland became the lowest tax part of UK and still have prescriptions and further education free at the point of delivery.

Scotland IS the lowest tax part of the U.K.

Scotland's already the lowest taxed part of the UK.  

We pay lower income tax.  
Lower council tax.  
No medicine tax. 
No bridge taxes 
Lower rail taxes 
No education taxes 

etc, etc,.

It's the EU who made it a blind Brexit. They refused to negotiate the final trade deal until withdrawal had been settled. So only the financial settlement, protection for EU citizens here and Brits in Europe, and keeping an open border in Ireland have been agreed. In 3 years. The Political Declaration is non binding.

You're kidding, David Davies spent two years doing f**k all. This mess is completely owned by the current government, including the backstop.

May made any good deal with her red lines impossible, but the EU set the rules and she accepted them. She likes rules.

Ignore him; for some inexplicable reason welshbairn has become an apologist and advocate for May’s shitty deal.

Thankfully he’s in the minority on here and in the HoC.
