Why is there one section of society given more State help than the rest even though that section earns more?
I refer to the tax relief on pension contributions. I was told by my MP that there was no consensus for change e.g. giving everyone the same level of relief. This was confirmed by a Treasury spokesman who said that their study had shown no consensus.

Yet the organizations that were consulted are all higher rate taxpayers. Turkeys voting for Xmas springs to mind.

the lack of knowledge of reporters ,interviewers on their brief does my nuts on,spokespeople from the treasury,obr etc filling the airways dressing this self employed nic rise as equalising the system,saying there now entitled to the new flat rate pension but they simply arnt its a lie,
you need to have 35 years of full nic at 12.6% to qualify for the new flat rate pension,self employed have been paying 9,will pay 10 next year and then 11,so they will never pay the amount needed to get the full flat rate,so will always get less than those on paye ,hence why they pay less in ,rant over,if andrew neil wants to give me a ring before the daily politics i,ll brief him, Laugh

Time to get rid of them but it won't happen.  Keep voting for the 74 grand expenses fuelled careerists.  I see Ozzie is doing well on his 650,000 job.  They do so well for us don't they.
Can't wait for the same old same old PLP get back control of the Labour party. 
What a wonderful thought!!!

This is all wrong.  Someone self employed retiring this year with even 35 years Class 2, far less Class 4 will get the full new rate.  They don't have to have 35 years from 2016/17.
