Confidemus Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 How did I miss this? I take it it's all over the news? Tucked away in a tiny wee corner of the BBC: " IAG boss, Willie Walsh told BBC Breakfast: "If anything, it [scottish independence] will be slightly positive since we believe it will abolish air passenger duty."

Confidemus Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 My, this forum is very quiet today. No HB or Ad Lib. Even Rule Britannia and chums aren't around much and Reynard's all but disappeared from here. Come back, champs, all is forgiven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tryfield Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I see the British Airways CEO has said this morning an indy Scotland would be good for the company Businessman wants more business type of thing. Patrick Harvie wont agree to airlines getting cheaper tax options, if he really is a "Green". More humdrum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecto Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Who are you trying to kid, Blair attacked single mothers within 6 weeks of being elected in 97, that's the day I vowed never to vote for them again, decades of fcuking hope flushed away in 1 announcement.

Tubbs Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 'Slightly positive' - Wow hold the front page. A business who is likely to benefit directly from a tax cut posts independence slightly supports independence. Another tax cut for the rich.

A business who is likely to benefit directly from a tax cut posts independence slightly supports independence. Another tax cut for the rich. Are you voting no from a left-wing perspective? An independent Scotland will be more left-wing than the current set-up in Westminster (or even the alternative Labour government (if you can even call them Labour these days)). If you want the rich to pay a fair share then a Yes vote is definitely the right way to go about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if the overall tax set up is advantageous from the UK perspective why then would the SG add on even more tax cuts for the rich. I haven't seen any of the proposals for the rich to pay a fairer share in the event of a yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what it appears is that the SG have added more benefits for the rich on top of what is labelled an unbalanced tax system ? Just to win the referendum?
