crookesey Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 This may come as a surprise to some, but every event in our lives is not the product of political action/inaction. Being skint can be caused by bone idleness, bad luck, health issues, poor decisions etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching 'Cathy come Home' should be compulsory viewing in schools. That and having my head screwed on correctly (albeit at a funny angle) worked for me / us. Keep safe out there .

I assume the ‘massive companies’ are energy providers, I’ve some sympathy with you there. Governments are in charge of said assets whilst in power, how do they steal them? Climate change can work both ways, we would all love to say goodbye to heating costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most UK based companies pay corporation tax. The government set the accounting rules and the tax rate. I am sure some companies make shed loads of money, not just energy companies. Corporation tax is due to increase by a large amount, I believe that will take effect in 2023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kidorry Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) That is when you are skint when you go to the Panel office ?(1930s/40s) for money for food and they ask you if you have a sofa, and when you say yes, they said sell that for food. This happened to my widowed mother. Edited May 10, 2022 by Kidorry added text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
