Re: 10m want to quit 'over-taxed' UK

In my mind the reason why a speed camera is there is totally irrelevent. There could be a billion speed cameras in the UK all there in the hopes of raising revenue, but if you don't speed you won't...

Re: 10m want to quit 'over-taxed' UK

I admit I haven't time to read all those links but I kind of doubt "motercyclenews.com" is a totally unbiased publication on such matters.

It amazes me that the people who complain about speed...

Re: 10m want to quit 'over-taxed' UK

So how many of the claims you processed were from EU member countires? If those are the figures I'm talking about and you're talking about the total claims you processed it does make a difference.

Re: 10m want to quit 'over-taxed' UK

I'm not sure what our average federal tax rate is as its tiered as in the UK but our marginal rate this year will be 25% I think, plus we pay 15.3% social security up to about $85,000 each (we're...

Re: 10m want to quit 'over-taxed' UK

I'm pretty sure this is another misconception. I think I remember reading on the BBC about the number of immigrants from new EU countries - about 350,000. Of them only about 500 had made and income...

Re: air miles - dumb question

I think it requires a full fare ticket, though, which usually costs more than twice what you can get a ticket for anyway

Re: The 10 costliest cars to insure

:eek: we're number 4! I didn't think it was that expensive - I guess I don't have anything to compare it to never having had a car before - is $400 for 6 months really expensive??

Re: Citizens Pony Up for Green Energy

We pay extra each month for renewable energy - we've always done it since we moved here so we don't notice the price difference. I checked our last bill and it was $8 extra.
