Britain’s ultimate destination. The Jobbie Centre.
(Picture flushed out here.)
Tomorrow, Socialist Equality will make us all a little poorer. The Chancer is bound to put up the price of tobacco and booze. They always do. Petrol, too, so better get out and fill up if you fancy driving around anywhere.
He’s going to offer those with nine-year-old and older cars a fistful of rapidly-depreciating money to scrap the banger and buy a shiny new one. The trouble is, two grand doesn’t buy much of a new car and if you drive an ancient rustbucket, chances are you don’t have the rest of the money available to make up the difference. If you did, you wouldn’t be driving a nine-year-old car. So this is worthless.
He’s going to announce help for those with massive mortgages who have lost their jobs. Good idea, but in order to qualify, you have to have a regular income. So if you’ve lost your job you don’t qualify. So this is worthless.
Wads of cash will be used to insulate homes. Council homes only, naturally. Can’t have any of us filthy non-dependent people saving on our bills. The reasoning is simple. Many of those in council homes don’t pay their electricity and gas bills. So the Chancer is saving his money, not ours. Well, it was ours, now it’s ‘tax’ and he wants to make savings. He doesn’t want the rest of us making savings because if we use less gas and electricity, we pay less tax on it. He wants more tax from us but he wants his army of dependents to stop spending it. So this is worthless.
Oh, and he’s going to build loads more little hutches to store his dependent pets in. Using magic money he’ll pull from his hat with a cheery ‘Ta-daa’. Well he has to store his horde of imported voters somewhere.
Got a pension? Not any more. He’s raiding those again. Saving up for retirement will be pointless within 24 hours.
Good news? There isn’t any. Except that this will, hopefully, be the last Labour budget we’ll see for a very long time. I really hope they don’t get another chance before they go.
I wonder what he’ll do when the last taxpayer has chucked in work and marched into the Jobbie Centre to demand their share? Perhaps he’ll tax MP’s expenses, which the Gorgon intends to sneakily increase by clamping down on them.
He’ll have to. Nobody else has any money left.
