This Is What It's Costing You Under A Tory Govt.

[gulliver1]

This lot in power.. not for much longer .Have just ripped you off for £7.5 Billion in inheritance Tax. Just in one year .This is the money you thought would go to your children Family etc.         How wrong you were. After working a life time to leave an inheritance. Along comes yet another Tory Snatcher.   Hunt.

[ToraToraTora]

So no inheritance tax is ever levied under Labour governments?

[miser]

This is the first time I have agreed with gulliver - this is an iniquitous tax 

[gulliver1]

First the Tories freeze the tax threshold , now it appears to have frozen the inheritance tax threshold .

[ToraToraTora]

11:15, "this is an iniquitous tax " yes I agree, but it's been in since 1894 and neither Labour nor Tories have repealed it. So it's hardly a Tory thing as implied by the OP.

oh come on come on

the inescapable things are - death and taxes ( Abe Linc sort of)

EU - most under the Napoleonic code goes to the familly - only a third ( parti tiers) - can be devised. The IHT is payable by the lucky RECIPIENT and it is frequent for the bequest to be refused on the grounds of cost

[gulliver1]

Hunt has just collected £400m more than he did last year .He is a bigger..... Snatcher than Thatcher .☺

now it appears to have frozen the inheritance tax threshold .

yup. £325k for long long time ( sozza lapsing into AB speak)

''Have just ripped you off.....This is the money you thought would go to your children''

Are there any particular dead ABers you are addressing, gulliver?

It's interesting to see a socialist wanting lower taxes on the wealthiest top 10%. Mind you that same socialist also mocks gay people and those in unskilled jobs like supermarkets market shelf stackers.

 

[Peter Pedant]

oo-er Gullz - I dont think new mod has you as a er model

[gulliver1]

Hunt has face repeated  calls to to abolish inheritance tax,  but being a dyed in the wool true robbing Tory. He is hard of hearing when it comes to giving.

[newmodarmy]

So Labour will abolish it? Dream on. 😆

[gulliver1]

NMA "so Labour will abolish it ?" The main thing Labour needs abolish is the Tories .

The Tory party aren't really stealing it - it is redistributed via the tax man.  The govt uses it to help run the country.

wolf 63 @ 16.09"The Tory party aren't really stealing it         it is redistributed  via the tax man" After the Tory MPs have stuffed enough of this cash into their pockets to keep them in a luxurious life when they get kicked out of office later this year.

[naomi24]

Gulliver, you keep saying Tory MPs are stuffing their pockets with taxpayers' cash.  Are you accusing them of stealing?

[Old_Geezer]

And the OP knows a potential government that'd do better ? Or are they under a delusion ?

 

Best bet is to vote for a third party that makes the right noises on the hope it'll translate into action and change.
