        Going to put money in your pocket with one hand and remove twice as much with the other in extra taxes while you aren't looking. Yay.

        My words exactly, you beat me to it!! Thing is though, watch the newspaper headlines on Weds... each one of them will accentuate the positive in front page and the sneaky taxes will be on the bottom of Page5. The spin is already done I’m sure

        What about the elderly living alone when they decide to up the price of coal and oil. Electricity will rise along with that. The cost of living keeps going up along with taxes. Nothing comes down.

        USC was a short term austerity tax introduced in 2011. Abolish it? No mention of healthcare and extra beds? Your housing plan has already failed. 146 units a week for next 10 yrs? Support homeless? How? Cost of living down how? Alcohol up. Petrol up. Cigs up. Food up.

        The government levy / USC was the big EU heist on this country. They’re still robbing us to save their own skin and our political elite have the masses brainwashed to believe the EU is not the enemy.

        Average joe doesn't live, he barely survives from one payslip to the next, struggling to keep his head above water, praying he nor family becomes sick or gets an un expected bill, while these cunts rob him of a decent living and future #EnoughIsEnough #GE18 #RaiseTheRoof

        Nothing about the elderly sitting on trolleys, and giving job seekers extra money for sitting on their ass in the pubs drink instead of making them earn it.

        Harris will probably have an over run on that budget as well and WE are expected to pay for it.
