Daylight robbery Vets bills.

The OBR couldn't predict the next day!

Yep my aim all my working life has been to sort my kids out, never had a new car fancy house or fancy holidays. In come Labour to take Income Tax plus now IHT on my SIPP where all my money went into my Pension went so 67% tax to spend on illegals and the bottomless pit of a totally useless Civil Service and NHS. I can't begin to describe the utter hatred I feel for this Govt. Landowners (and Businesses) who are asset rich but cash strapped, what are they going to do? Sell out to Solar and Wind and stop producing food? Insane policies from an insane Govt

I see absolutely no benefit of an FAC Shotgun for Vermin control. I shoot Pigeons and Crows with a 3 shot Benelli and if I get to the third shot they are almost always out of range or on the very edge of it. By my eighth shot they would be hundreds of yards away🤣 Not sure where there are any Rabbits in plague numbers these days, very few and far between and have been for years.

First year Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) rates for new cars have been overhauled, with significant rises for certain vehicles from 1st April 2025. According to the Government, the measures have been designed to “strengthen incentives to purchase zero emission and electric cars” by “widening the differentials between zero emission, hybrid and internal combustion engine (ICE) cars. The biggest news is the ten-fold increase in first-year car tax rates for cars emitting between 1-50g/km of CO2, which includes hybrids. These will increase from the current rate of £10 for petrol and diesel cars (or zero for hybrids) to £110. The vast majority of plug-in hybrid cars fall into this band. Rates for new cars emitting between 51-75g/km of CO2 will increase from £30 (or £20 for hybrids) to £135. All other rates will double next year, meaning the owner of a new VW Golf 1.5 TSI will pay an extra £220 in the first year. By contrast, a new BMW X5 M60i will have £2,745 added to the cost of the first-year rate. Standard VED rates for beyond the first year will rise in line with the Retail Price Index (RPI) as is usually the case. The Government will “consider raising” the threshold for the current Expensive Car Supplement for electric cars “only at a future fiscal event”. Currently cars of any type costing over £40,000 when new are liable for an extra £410 a year VED charge for five years after registration. Furthermore, Benefit-in-Kind tax rates for company cars will be maintained at 2% until 2026. Double-cab pick-ups will also be treated as cars for capital allowances, Benefit-in-Kind taxation and deduction from business profits from April next year.

Govt borrowing costs surge after the Budget, nice one Mrs Thieves!

Yep that as well, all so they can waste it all on inefficient Public Services and Millibrain's green economy wrecking insanity.

It is if you are an Employer! Raynor's new workers rights Bill, minimum wage up and NI up and thresholds down. They will pass on the costs with less jobs so less Tax take for Mrs Thieves.

Yes, my SIPP will now be subject to IHT so it will affect my children.

If they were they would sell although it might be the 3 year 2/3 depreciation putting people off. Will no doubt be reviews on You Tube.

They are not on bail, they haven't been charged.

Shame they are not tough on the people assaulting the Police at Manchester Airport. 2TK for all to see.

They are making cars that they can't sell namely EV's, if they were any good they would be selling just like their ICE cars did very well.

VW shutting 3 factories, cutting pay and sacking thousands because they have gone down the EV route. If they were any good they would sell.
