There will have to be more investment in schools to accommodate those no longer in private education. Does more always equal better?

Forgive me for the error. Are they communists?

NI contributions do entitle you to something - the state pension and, it would appear, JSA. I understand they aren’t hypothecated and where today’s benefits come from.

Well there will be the obligatory 2 goal start given to Millwall, and then it all depends on whether the strikers are more clinical with their finishing. Another 2-2 draw wouldn’t surprise me.

Tax evasion is illegal, tax avoidance may not be. I might argue that choosing an £80k company EV rather than an £80k ICE company car is tax avoidance because the real benefit is the value of the car whilst the tax regime will only charge you tax on, say, 2% of the list price for the former...

I was sitting here mulling things over, and I have realised that a combination of 5 months Labour government and 5 months exposure to all the socialists on here has driven me further and further to the right. Well done chaps!

I bet that came as a huge surprise 😀

Would you have been paying Class 1 NI contributions for the previous 2 - 3 years in that job?

So why continue to pay anything then, it’s just not logical. The fact that have paid NI for all that time counts for little. They are still British, unlike some living off the state.

Those things are awful and definitely not justifiable when illegal arrivals in this country are being put up in hotels at taxpayer expense.

So why do they pay the pension at all, the approach is totally illogical. And why was child benefit being sent back to Eastern Europe when the kids weren’t in the UK? The double standards are unbelievable.

Because they have paid NI for 40 plus years, unlike some who claim benefits.

I know reciprocity is the enabling factor, I really don’t understand why that should be.

That’s not a justification of the rule.

Why should people who arrive illegally in the UK receive benefits having never contributed a halfpenny?

It is fascinating how this overwhelmingly socialist forum is so mean to older people.

On what basis is the “deal” fair or reasonable. Still waiting on an answer from @Sky Blue Pete

One of them Obesity and development of diabetes being another two.
