Most of the budget was a bit meh with not a lot to get either excited or depressed about. However the tax on EVs is a disgrace tbh. The extended freeze on personel allowances is also somewhat of a piss take especially to the low paid.
I agree that buying an EV was encouraged by the Government and people were incentivised to do so, but you must surely agree that all vehicles should pay road tax.
I'm fairly sure the opposition receive a copy of the budget in advance to prepare their response. Didn't stop Badenough embarrassing herself and her party though
Yeah, as a pensioner I'd have been gutted if I hadn't been allowed to save 20k a year in cash, tax free, every year. I might have had to sack the butler and decant my own port to make up for it.
Exactly mate. There would have been a grace period
Like most pensioners can save anything out of the state fucking pension
When the number of EV vehicles gets higher maybe but
Really weird. I think you can get a government discount when buying an EV but now you also get a government bill for buying one. Mixed messaging.
A post that says a lot about the poster but nothing else.
They like to make life complicated and common sense extinct.
You would have thought Badenoch would have had time to write a response to the budget rather than just a list of insults she uses every week.
But the minimum wage increase is gonna hit yer hard. The butler 'n scullery maids, not to mention the Master of the Back Passage, can barely make ends meet with the pittance yer paying them.
You mean like Brown and buy diesel! All EVs pay road tax now anyway.
