Budget

I haven't looked over the full Budget but I 100% agree with the '2 kids' concept.

You wouldn't buy 3 dogs knowing full well there was fuck all chance you could afford to look after them would you?.

You wouldn't go knocking on all your neighbours' doors and asking them to cough up out of their wages so you could feed the dogs would you?

Exactly the same with children.

In fact, if you subsequently neglected those 3 dogs (due to being unable to financially care for them), you could be looking at a few months on A-wing.

Definitely a step in the right direction as an underpinning concept.

In 2020 a couple with 2 kids with the man working 37.5 hours per week at the Living wage and the woman working 16 hours at the living wage will be £850 per year worse off

Not if Gideon keeps fucking up like this ;)

The man is a fucking clown
 
Only none working when they can, skiving, baby producing, benefit fraud scrounging bastards hate todays budget, if you work hard then reap the rewards as I will, Britain is fighting back !!!!
 
Very happy with the budget I only had 2 kids because I couldn't afford any more and we both worked full time and had to pay full child care costs back in the day whilst we had friends who were out of work and had 3 or 4 still had holidays and a car!

And no rascal the kids born now won't be paying our pensions because we all now have to have a work place pension which we pay a percentage of our salary into

Unemployment is at 6.0%

So 94% of them quite probably will be.

But it's worth throwing away that 94% because then the 6% might provoke jealousy

It looks like you chose to ignore the word 'some'.

The straight fact is that people should not be having children they can't afford.

If you or anyone else can put forward a sensible reason as to why they should I'd love to hear it.

Sometimes I think you are on the wind up, because I don't beleive anyone can be so dumb, in a couple of years the Tories will be mired in sleaze and imploding due to Europe, they always end up the same way

This is an example off an independent web site.... http://www.which.co.uk/money/insura...otection/income-protection-problems-to-avoid/

like I say they are a rip off IMO, more than happy for you not to agree but the small print will always have a reason not to pay.

Back and neck problems and stress-related illness
When it comes to common illnesses, such as stress and back pain, several policies make it hard to claim. When we looked at income protection policies, we found that some would pay out if you were certified as ill by your doctor, whilst others would insist on physical evidence of the underlying cause.

PG Mutual's policy terms, for example, state that it won't cover any mental or nervous disorders 'without demonstrable organic disease'. Similarly, insurers British Insurance and I:protect may only pay out for back pain where there is 'radiological medical evidence of abnormality' or 'scan evidence'.

Barclays insists on a psychiatric consultant's report for stress, and an orthopaedic consultant's report for backache. With these types of conditions, providing concrete physiological evidence can often prove extremely difficult.

If you're buying an income protection policy, make sure you ask the potential provider whether it covers back, neck and stress problems, and on what basis.

None of that changes the fact that they pay out on over 90% of the cases does it.

And the above is saying they will pay out if there is physical evidence of an illness rather than malingerers.
 
One sneaky thing I wa suprised at was the increase in insurance premium tax up to 9.5% from 6% which is going to increase everyone's insurance premiums but tbf I did expect it to match VAT before too long

Great analogy.

Highly unlikely 94% from families that couldn't afford to have them in the first place will.

And I have to point out again, you can have as many kids as you like, just the rest will only pay for the first two.
