    Nope, that's what Osborne counts on, and he should be shown how gravely he is mistaken.

    Unless Tories are the party that cuts taxes they can fook off - Dummkopf's logic above is that Labour would have increased taxes anyway, BUT follow that logic they would next time they win, and that will happen sooner or later and Tories just helped them by increasing taxes massively.

    Labour will win next elections with or without Korbyn.

    Well, why doubt when I already told you that I voted Tories in two General elections? I don't have video/written evidence of that, but why is it so difficult to take my word for it?

    Or even better - tell me who is your MP, I'd like to check how big their majority.

    P.S. Putin won't be alive in 2020.

    Why check his majority? Corbyn has no attraction where I live, this has been a Tory seat since it was created.

    1. Increase the tax on dividends to the same rate of regular income tax, ie 20%/40%/50% - they have said they would increase the top rate to 50%.

    2. Increase corporation tax, probably to 30%.

    3. Increase employer NIC, to hit those nasty capitalists.

    4. Increase Capital Gains Tax to 40/50%

    5. Wealth tax introduced.

    6. Council Tax rises to let rip.

    7. Borrowing to zoom up.

    8. Big increases on welfare spending.

    9. The Falkland Islands given to Argentina.

    10. Gibraltar given to Spain.

    11. Exit from NATO.

    12. Abandon Trident.

    13. Defriend the USA.

    14. Best friends with Putin.

    Need I go on?

    Yep!

    However Osborne will have one thing in common with Brown - he'll fail to get elected - I'll see to that!

    I've caught myself thinking recently that even dividend tax is now high enough that if it's pushed a bit further then it would make sense to pay higher salary to have 0 profits, and thus no corp tax.

    By the time Osborne finishes fooking about with the tax system there will be no scope left for Korbyn to do anything.
    Ahh but Corp tax is optional .....allegedly
