Personal Allowance to rise an extra £2k in next Conservative government.

[Mackem00]

Aye, I remember Cloughy, what's he do like?



Aye, £50k is great down here, especially for one person, I'd say most couples won't earn that much between them.

Business lawyer or some such.

Not even close imo.

It means you can move back up home with a decent pension once your mortgage is paid off, if you ever wanted to though. Or maybe to France?

probably france I'd have thought mate. in the alps if I have my way. which I won't.

 

[Mackem00]

honestly mate it's sheer madness. I used to rent next door to this:

Looks a decent enough housing estate, probs about 150k up here.

nuts innit.

 

[Mackem00]

nuts innit.

It's beyond stupid and makes little sense to me. I feel sorry for the normal working people down there like.

Aye, you're right, I'd say, off the top of my head, most of the people I know will be lucky if they have a total household income of more than £40k, mostly around £35k where both work.

Married transfer allowance on top? Hope so as that'll be another grand or so.

they're trying to do away with this, and IIRC, it only applies to those married before 1948 or summit

Nah, I'm talking about the new one which comes in next year. You can transfer circa £1000 personal allowance from one half of a married couple to another.

Sounds about right to me like.

which most people are. we got very lucky with ours, that's for sure.

Aye, that's what i meant. Bar the crazy earners everyone is being screwed for no logical reason.

wooo that sounds canny, special if your other half is a housewife/mum, and only earns JSA, or a low wage per say,

I spoke to a guy who paid 750k for a house for his au pair......that's why it's fucked up. one big joke mate.

Aye, I'll be nicking a grand of the wife's allowance.

Does he not get the point of au pair? Although I suppose it would help stop the wife catching them!

I spent a lot of last week looking in the window of every estate agent in Lucca, in Tuscany.

We need to do some further research....
