Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Yes, chopping the big boys diversions is good, but only £300m, I thought it was a lot more than that.


But what about the micro businesses?

Surely a higher cut off wouldn't hurt anyone, and keep a few more in work.

If you raise the cut off then the VAT receipts will go down.

Yes, but keeping it across the board will kill all receipts from a lot of the tidlers, lots of tidlers out there.

That threshold was there for a reason.

The cut off is already quite high at £81,000. The small businesses will just have to get used to it. The same arguments were used when VAT was introduced but people learned to cope with it.

Hays WRONG yet again.............

SUBSTITUTE IDS FOR Ed Milliband AND YES YOU ARE RIGHT HAYS, but its not propaganda these figures come from your favourite agency........... the OBR.

The health hypocrisy of Jeremy Hunt26/11/2014

Coalition Health Secretary (and well-known misprint) Jeremy Hunt has admitted ignoring his own advice and taking his children to accident and emergency because he did not want to wait for a GP appointment.

The queue-jumping Conservative has previously – hypocritically – urged the public to avoid A&E in all but the most urgent cases, telling us to go to chemists’ doctors’ surgeries and walk-in centres instead.

In the light of his statement during yesterday’s health questions in the House of Commons, we may conclude that this is in order to clear the way for him and his fat, rich buddies.

It’s not enough for him that he’s selling off NHS contracts to his private-sector shareholder friends just as fast as he can; he wants to push ordinary people – the people who actually pay for the NHS – to the back of the queue.

The NHS is falling further into crisis under his stewardship, with most of the English trusts preparing to record huge deficits at the end of the financial year.

Wasn’t the Health and Social Care Act 2012 supposed to ensure that the NHS stayed on-budget? Why has it made matters worse?

The NHS has delayed publication of its weekly “winter pressures situation reports”, raising fears that people are being denied information about what’s happening on the NHS frontline.

And experts have reported that they believe vulnerable people are having more accidents in the home because of cuts in social care.

The failure of Conservative attempts to manage the National Health Service is complete. Perhaps this is why Tory MPs would prefer healthcare to be entirely privately-run – they would be able to blame someone else.

Read the article Haystack before you comment, or is the article wrong?


“Those not already registered for UK VAT will face hassle and extra costs. It’s important the burdens of the new arrangements are minimised and firms are given the support and advice they need to weather the changes successfully.”

Emma Jones, founder of small business network Enterprise Nation, added: "We've been busy supporting record numbers of start-ups to build and grow a solid business trading globally as well as in the EU, only for them to be knocked sideways by MOSS.

"Manning up to this new and significant level of bureaucracy will be destructive for micro firms and mean many never get off the ground. The current VAT threshold exists for a reason - to protect firms when they are small. We'd like to see the Government pause, review and assess the impact before they go ahead."

aid because we do not want these bastards back in power they are just liars and crooks selling the nhs to their friends they are evil bastards

Alf, have they tried seasonal jobs on farms in the fields for instance? if these youngsters are in the south east where you are and can't get work down there then their are plenty around the regions, basic accommodation and food as well are provided.

Also driving jobs?

RIP Australian batsman, Phil Hughes, who has died from his injury after being hit by a bouncer. He was apparently not adequately protected by the helmet he was wearing at the time. How very sad.
