Maybe if Lord Rothermere, owner of this pile of trash, didn’t fiddle with his domicile status to avoid taxes (along with others too) then Darling might not have had to resort to the 50% tax band.
Oh dear, this is going to be very difficult for lady readers. There’s a picture of somebody in a pretty dress with the main story, but Femail is going on about … well, girly things …
S’funny how the increasing number of commentators claiming this recession isn’t going to be so long lasting as originally though are ignored and labelled as ‘fantasy’.
Love the way this (unique) international recession (created by vast losses – almost $700 trillion admitted so far – on the derivativesd markets) is being treated as if it were any old recession and all the fault of our own, current, Gov.
They’re nothing but a propaganda outlet for Camneron & the tory party.
Funny, other newspapers mention that the public sector does indeed face cuts and a squeeze on spending not seen since the days of the Mail’s heroine, Thatcher
Well, they’re half right. Labour are cutting public spending, but they are putting a 50p tax on the rich. If find it funny after so much coverage about bankers and high wages that the Mail doesn’t support taxing the rich.They’d only be happy if he cut taxes and that would do just as much damage to the economy. I’m not sure I back the 50p rise either but for different reasons. And Darling’s promise of growth is rather optomistic. He was wrong last time and he might be wrong again.
I don’t know what I find more disturbing, that image of Darling in a dress or that advertisement for Femail. Ewh.
“Win a French Holiday Home or £100,000 cash tax-free”
Has anyone pointed out the supreme irony of this, viz. Lord Rothermere is domiciled in France to tax-avoidance purposes, in spite of the fact that according to reports, he is barely seen in his Chateau in the Dordogne?
I think it is traditional in the street of shame to use a cartoon image on the front page for the day after the budget.
I do like the “apology” at the bottom of the image. If only it said “apologies to the people of Britian for the publication of this nonsensical ranting”
The 50% tax rate does seem a bit of a joke, i work for a firm of accountants and out of 1100 clients only 12 individuals earn more than £150,000. 11 of these are company directors and majority share holders so restircting there income to less than £150,000 (or evan £100,000) will be straight forward. The other one ironically is a pensioner and may well be moving to warmer climates.

13 pages of bullshit and lies inside.
Did you see that bit in PE about Lord Rothermere.
Anyway I think they spent hours creating that page as no matter what he said, they would hammer him for it.
That is a very, very disturbing image indeed.

But which is better:
assessing the economic condition of the nation
or
girly things ?
Oh my. The rich are being hit by a 50p tax. Boo hoo hoo. My fucking heart bleeds for you, you selfish wankers.
The confused nonsense goes on.

Pathetic.

I thought he had cut public spending?
Utterly puerile Photoshopping, and sadly ever other papers (other than Guardian) is at it too.
And a 50p tax cut for 150k-plus, shocking. At this rate, they may only be able to afford to get Jessica just the two ponies for her birthday.

Boo Hoo! I feel so sorry for these exploited rich people – NOT

The Mail actually exsposed some nasty things about the BNP!
Credit for not using an awful ‘Darling’ pun.
Thumbs down for awful photoshop.
Almost Mail, almost.

They actually say “Hit the Rich” in the way any moral person would say “Hit the Poor” after the 10p tax band thing.
Tossers. Squeeze them to the pips.
No St George’s Cross in the banner? I cries PC gone mad!

Bloody hell those drugs haven’t worn off have they from last night, I’m sure I can see Alistair Darling dressed as a girl.
