Lol, she’s destroyed herself in just one working week. No way Truss will be leader going in to the next election, so we will have 5 Conservative leaders and PM’s in 8 years. Joke party, no longer any credibility. They are too far gone to come back from this internally too, I think.

PR must come. Labour conference wanted it, other opposition parties want it, a lot of Conservatives might see it as the only way of having any chance of a say in future government policy for decades and that will mean it will happen.
 
I’m guessing on the back of the interviews with her own fellow MPs yesterday, she wouldn’t have got it through parliament, so think she is trying to save face…but it’s way to late for that..unlucky Lizzie 😂😂 #LizTr-U-ss #incompetenceatitsbest
 
Throwing Kwarteng under the No 45 Bus yesterday Truss didn’t want to take any responsibility and in that moment her fate will be quickly decided. Gove wading in last night. A Government with no credibility whatsoever. Things collapsing very quickly.
 
Might be controversial but bankers and footballers aside , most people who earn above 150k will be on the 150-200k I guess . These will include doctors , surgeons , leaders of business who employ loads of staff, why should they pay 45%? They already pay massive amounts of tax and are expected to take on massive amounts of personal responsibility , accountability and liability , have likely spent years training … as a percentage based tax , and if I was a doctor working my a&se to help people I’d be thinking screw you I already pay tens of thousands …..

So, if you earn 151k, you would be saving 50 quid a year? I'ld suggest that's 50 quid you probably don't need.

Pay 45% on wages *above* £150k. You're making out as if they pay it on all their wages.

And what Doctor or Surgeon gets paid over £150k??

Salaried GP wage is a maximum of £93,000 so well under the 45 percent tax bracket. Surgeon is similar.

But that’s not the issue I think : who determines what a person needs or deserves . My point is that if I was fortunate enough to earn 150k then at that range I’m paying 50% tax. Why not 100% if they don’t need it. My point was even at 40% they are paying so much more tax than others. I can see why some might think s@d it I’ll take a less stressful job as I don’t lose out much financially

I think 45% is fair for an upper amount to be honest, I don’t agree it should be any higher as some think. I just scrape into the 40% bracket but am only paying that on a small amount. As long as the total tax and national insurance burden stay below a combined 50% for top earners I don’t see an issue.

I think they should of kept the national insurance rise for 40 and 45% tax payers as well though not for lower earners. Should of upped it by 2% not 1.25 as well.
