Budget November 2025

Starmer was probably brought up in what I’d describe as lower middle class. What would meet your definition of “working though?

That’s semantics. I’ll give you that but in no way is he from a well off background.

Max, re interest on savings…

All savings inside an ISA are exempt from tax, regardless of the value. For savings outside of an ISA, you don’t pay tax on the first £1000 of interest earned. For an account paying 3% interest, this basically means you need a balance of £33k before you pay tax, and if you’ve got this much money sat outside of an ISA then you really need to fix that.

I don't know that much about ISA's I know that you can put a maximum of 20k into one between april to april and I suppose you can remove that 20k at the end of the year and put it into another ISA and so on etc?
That figure is being reduced to £12,500 though.

Yes it is and yes I agree.

“Rich mates” imagine being PM and not have to deal with rich people that would be something.

 

[Smurph]

This is what you do. You just deflect go on have a bit of bottle explain in concrete terms why he is no 1 not from a working class background and who his rich mates are.

I haven't deflected anything. It is plain a simple, the billionaire friends of this government do not pay enough tax.

Which ones? And does the government have actual “billionaire friends”? Cos from what I can tell they don’t seem to have many if any.

Hahahahahahaha

There is it. The Daily Mail speaks.

I've no idea what the Daily Mail writes I don't buy or read papers, I heard what I wrote on the national news.
But you as always won't accept any of it cause you always think you know better and right it off with laughter.

Use ChatGPT, you might learn something.

Can't be arsed to get in to this on a Sunday evening, you're just being awkward and know exactly where I'm coming from.

You’re right it was better when you were ignored

Pointless trying to talk with these Labour apologists. Starmer and gang can do no wrong on their eyes.

Working class

Next you'll be telling me his father was a tool maker.

Well he certainly made a tool.

I don’t but it’s a recurring theme that when challenged on an opinion you can very rarely back it up and then take the “I’m out of this” route to avoid further discussion. Hey ho.
