Rules for thee, but not for me.
Public sector workers will be spared a massive £15billion national insurance raid in the Budget, it was revealed today.
Chancellor Rachel Reeves is planning a huge move to impose NICs on employers’ contributions to retirement funds in the crucial package next Wednesday – despite complaints it is a ‘straightforward breach’ of Labour‘s manifesto.
However, it the burden will seemingly be borne entirely by the private sector, with Ms Reeves pumping an extra £5billion into NHS and other budgets to avoid cuts to headcount or wages.
I knew this Labour administration would be bad. However, the level of spitefulness surpasses even the Blair/Brown years. And as for making pips squeak – Denis Healy wasn’t imagining ordinary working people, even if that is the logical outcome. This lot aren’t even pretending to care. They hate us and the feeling is mutual.
