    If the UK invested in robotics, instead of importing cheap labour, then all would be fine.

    Gotta say old people moan a lot. What peevs me off is them holding on to homes to sell it off at stupid prices when they haven't done anything to the property in over 15 years. That is the type of people we should tax whilst we are at it.
    Yes and we should have a footballers tax whilst we are at it. 200% tax on any footballers income over £100K per week. That'll keep the premiership wage bill down.

    It seems to be the reason for politicians to exist, to dream up new ways to tax us. Even if we are already taxed for something they will give it a new name and add that on top.

    Nobody stands for less tax anymore. It's not left vs right, it's private vs public.

    The proposals, set out by two Commons committees, are based on the system in Germany under which all workers over 40 pay 2.5 per cent of their wages into a pot formally earmarked for social care.
