I notice they are at pains to point out that she is paying for this with profits from her Duchy of Lancaster estate. Lol. Replace ‘Queen’ with ‘Your taxes’ and it makes more sense. ---

One guy I used to work with voted Torey because of income tax threshold changing at £50k a year, going up to £80k before the 40% came in, I think that’s correct. He earns £26k. We are fucking doomed. ---

It’s what confirms for me that there’s just no plan, if he wanted Brexit to seem like a roaring success he’d have had an idea for avoiding this mess. All he really wants is stay in power now, that’s it. ---

> [@anon83623327](#): > > all this waffle about pay and conditions as if this lot have ever done anything to help with that in the last decade. There was nothing stopping offering truck drivers a hand job every third Sunday of the month if we wanted. Brexit could never be about improving conditions because eu regs were a floor not a ceiling. The truck driver shit is getting a load of focus because it’s the visible bit of brexit. I dread to think whats happening behind closed doors in the care sector. ---

Oh great. “_And I say targeted, because we consult with disadvantaged communities, to see how we can avoid disrupting their lives_.” So if you’re not disadvantaged but still need to get to work or the doctor/dentist or pick the kids up or drop the kids off or get to a gig or even get home in time to cook for the family, tough shit!
