      Anyway the great news is that Skins and Co. are virtually redundant these days ( or soon will be ). The SNP is, clearly, the future of the Scots Working-Class with The Tories as their main Oppnents,UKIP will punish Labour in Eng/Wales for abandoning their traditional voters. Remember Labour have never won ANY election without the Scottish vote so even if we ignore the Corbyn Factor and other internal Labour Party strife they, literally, can not win if the Scoys go independent or continue to support The Party of Scotland ( the 21st Century emerging party). On the other hand as Unions are sooo much weaker now and most people want to progress and aspire to do better for their Families the need for Labour is much less rspecially as the other parties will HAVE TO , rightly, look after the NHS etc.
      Labour had its uses for Workers in the LAST CENTURY but now yjey might as well jack it all in as most want to PROSPER and Labour want to CONTROL . Labour are no friend of the Working Class as have severely depreciated Workers wages by flooding the South ( and other parts) with millions of immigrants who are happy to earn 5/6 per hour putting British workers out of a job.
      It was also Labour who stopped bright WorkingClass kids having a chance to go to Oxbridge by getting to a Grammar School in favour of bog standard Comps. They brought Roulette machines into Bookies so the poor lose even more money.I could go on. Labour is HOPEFULLY history !

    corporation tax is on profits, yes- but it is the business owners company, the bonus comes from the profit. the national insurance is also paid by the company and by the employee. so they do pay twice if they own and run the company.
    whether or not they pay the tax before or after they decide to take the profit as a bonus (or dividend), it still stands that if they make £100,000 profit, they get £24,000 of it, the government snatches the rest. would you agree that is too high?
