So Labour want to introduce a Financial Transaction Tax? Are they insane? Sweden introduced this in 1984. The result was a disaster for the Swedish Stock Exchange. Instead of paying the tax on your Trading, you just move your Trading to an Exchange where you don't have to pay the tax. In many ways I say “good”, our economy is horrendously abnormal in it’s reliance on London and it.’s financial markets, over the course of the last decade under the Tories we have put less money into non-financial sectors of our economy than any of the other G7 countries! It’s mad and it’s about time someone had the spine to try and move us to a more well-rounded economy and stop fellating these snake oil salesmen with their big bonuses whilst we have towns in the north forgotten about and left to go to wrack and ruin. |

I though no one gave a toss about Social media. Raab said so.. I don't, but it appears as though you do  You're literally using social media every day. This is literally social media. |

Jesus wept. This from the same party that mislead the Queen, of all people. Still won’t lose a vote mind. |

It was his last comment. "Let's get Brexit done. Get 'em out!" I don't think he was referring to dog owners. To be honest that is stretching things a bit far to describe that as a 'racist' comment. They do tend to speak differently up North. You think he was referring to tits?! |

The City contributes something like 75 billion per year in tax. An FTT will kill the Goose that lays the Golden Egg. |

You think he was referring to tits?! he was clearly referring to his list of costed party policies so he could review them in detail ahead of the election, possibly to see if there were any dog sh** policies. I shouldn't think he would have been disappointed. |

Jesus wept. This from the same party that mislead the Queen, of all people. Still won’t lose a vote mind. I see the top 5% have responded quickly. Donations to parties Liberals 250k : Labour 260k : Conservatives 5 million. The party ran by the top 5% for 250 years are now pumping money in like water. And they say' we need to stick up for Great Britain '. But warn us if Labour gets in the super rich will leave. What an insult !. What would happen if millions of low paid Brits left our country because they didn't get what they wanted?. How can the super rich who back the Tories say they are proud to be British??. What they mean is we love money and power and our social status in the top 5%.. |

Would be a nice boost to the economy and allow more low paid, hard working workers to pay less tax. Wishful thinking unfortunately. |

That list was interesting- big bad Soros donated less than 7k to Labour meanwhile the Tories are taking massive sums from, amongst others, the wife of a former Russian treasury minister. Hilarious! I can only assume she must have passed the checks made under the proceeds of crime act that that Azeri woman is being prosecuted under. A property developer was another notable donor who contributed a million, obviously done very well out of his mates in government. I wonder if some of that money is going to be offered in incentives to members of the Brexit party to stand down? The disparity in funding is in the region of Barnet trying to beat Man United at Old Trafford. No wonder there is very little hope for any change in the style of government. The rich sinking their profits into solidifying their position. |

I can only speak of my experience of living on the dole- I was obviously doing it wrong as I had to live on £2 a day. I’d love to know how these mythical beasts buying Xbox games and TVs manage it! |

Regardless of your politics is it still the case that your union membership means your money supports a party you may want nothing to do with? |

I have no knowledge of the voting intentions of people on benefits and neither do you ?. My point is the top 5% fund the TORY party and the historical history of the Conservative party for over 200 years confirms this. You would have to look at a report last week outling who different social groups intend to vote / Brexit including working class : lower working class and underclass. It was too long to read and it passed me. |

Chickens feed compared to the top 5% who have now given £5.6 million v a mere 200k for Labour. What chance have anyone in this country except the powerful backing their own  |

The City contributes something like 75 billion per year in tax. An FTT will kill the Goose that lays the Golden Egg. You have to ask yourself then why there is so much inequality if the city of London is producing sums like that. Where is it all going? |

And the increase food banks given to people who work long hours. I know church's given out confidential food banks to hard working families who are too shy to be seen. What a country we become when hard working families need to beg for food. I have no shame in taxing the rich when working class people pay many taxes and suffer stress . |
