He also thought that he wasn't even in the top 50% of earners, let alone the top 5%.
There were a number of things that annoyed me about the exchange, not least how the hell does someone who can't grasp basic facts end up earning that much money!
'All doctors make over 80k' The starting salary is around 26k. |

The starting salary is around 26k.
Then he said all lawyers make over 80k and the Labour MP said, when I was a lawyer my salary was 40k, his mum shouted out 'liar'. As if she would fucking know what his salary was!! Stupid whelk. |

Anything over about £25,500 would put you in the top 50%.

More of a thought than a genuine policy, but wonder if we need to try out some sort of regionalism in taxes to reflect the cost of living in different areas? I earn well above the national average, but I live in central London where the purchasing power of that just about extends to renting a one bedroom flat that I couldn't buy in my wildest dreams (and not just because of the avocados).
Maybe that's just going to inflate the London bubble further and the better way around it is a genuine programme of regional investment to try and make other places a bit closer to London economically?
Dunno, it's tricky. I don't really think I 'deserve' to pay less tax or anything like that but it also doesn't feel fair to equate earning X amount in London with the same amount anywhere with a more normal housing market.

Unfortunately, there will be too many people agreeing with that guy and branding labour liars without bothering to check themselves. Something that he tories and the organised mass smears against Crobyn/Labour count on.

Are the Tories planning to release a manifesto or just trust the faithful to blindly vote for them?
I ask as postal ballots go out this weekend. on in theory by Wednesday next week a quarter of all adults will have cast their votes in the election, its almost like the Tories conclude that the manifesto is not needed, s'pose it worked for Farage Ltd?

The Tory-lite brexit party manifesto offering free broadband for all homes and public transport
Am sure the right wingers will find the same faults with that idea as labours equivalent

Farage wants a new law that says if 5m people want a referendum, then they can have one.
Presumably he agrees then with the 6m+ that signed a petition calling for a referendum on the Tory Brexit options vs Remaining in the EU.
