Interesting point, have you only got the Unionists and Sinn Fein? If so, this election sort of leaves you
with no credible choices, unlike Scotland, which although dominated by the SNP, you can vote Labour/Conservative.
SDLP will also stand & at the last general election a Tory "sort of" stood, from memory he was a London based Seikh who I don't believe had ever even visited the constituency, zero campaigning (don't think they even printed leaflets, certainly no door knocking), the green party might stand, and the Workers party might field a candidate, but it will be a contest to see who hates themmuns the most on both sides
Just checked the 2015 results, Cannibis is safer than alcohol party got 460 votes, the Conservative candidate got 201, shows how seriously they campaigned.

They don't have to vote Tory.

But the welfare state is in place and the top earners are still receiving less than half of their pay at the end of the month. Which is far more than fair.

You act as if the Tories don't take any tax from those earning £50k plus.

That is not true. The top tax rate is 45% for income above £150,000. No national insurance is payable at 2% that level of income.
Income below that is taxed less.
For example if you earn £150,000 your total tax liability is £59,820, that means your total tax liability is less than 40%.

The liability does rise as you earn more, its up to 45.9% by the time you earn £1,000,000 and 46.5% by time you get to £2,000,000 and 46.8% at £5,000,000
Thats assuming that its all declared as salary, which is unlikely and the taxes on other forms of income are lower


I am well aware that those who earn over £50,000 get taxed as I am one of them.
 
Labour all day long. JC is the change the country needs but unfortunately cos he can't be bought certain sections of the media will continue to discredit him and produce more lies to make sure they continue to reap the rewards of a Conservative government.

Fucking sad state when the media sway opinion.
