TIGHTCHOKE Posted October 1 Report Share Posted October 1 The first Budget of the New Labour Government is due on the 30th of October. Who will be hit next? Please remember she has repeatedly stated that there will be "NO RETURN TO AUSTERITY" I personally think she will go after people who can't hit back. Those on benefits of any kind will find the screw being tightened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokers and those that enjoy a drink too. Hopefully she will find someone to stand up to her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldypigeonpopper Posted October 1 Report Share Posted October 1 Hello, There are many UK citizens on Benefits who are genuine , Many waiting to be seen by the NHS , Many disabled citizens who cannot find the right employment, Many of our younger generation and adults waiting for NHS Counselor appointment, It is not fair to put all these as lazy citizens on Benefits, Having said that there are and will always be those that can work but cheat the system, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a damned good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He drove a car that was on Motability in his wifes name who was genuinely disabled. He was not, but used to call out everyone that he thought was working the system. His hypocrisy was massive.

That would entail more of the uncivils working from home? Cheaper just to pay out until the wheels come off and we get taken over for £1.00? 1 hour ago, Mice! said: I know this much, it'll be those of us that are working, and those who used to work now drawing a pension that get hit the hardest. All part of the policy? Frighten, subdue and take from everyone except those in power? I wonder if new Dachas are available on expenses?
