"As we look to fight climate change, this is an excellent opportunity for householders to cut their excessive use of gas and electricity. For too long, immigrants and families generations deep into the welfare state have racked up enormous, unnecessary energy bills at the taxpayers' expense. The days of paying for the excesses of the lazy and privileged are over!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will redefine it to 25% of income or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thane of Cawdor Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 13 minutes ago, scottsdad said: I was thinking the same. They will redefine it to 25% of income or something. The definition of fuel poverty was changed in England a few years ago, ostensibly to link it more closely to general poverty. For some households, whilst required expenditure on fuel might be disproportionately high, it could be affordable. I recall seeing the Royal Household being cited as a ludicrous example to challenge the 10% definition. How fuel poverty is defined in the devolved nations is within the remit of their Governments/Assemblies. I doubt any of these would be motivated to change the fuel poverty definition as a gift to Westminster. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, i'm not sure Gaelic road signs can be classified as something that failed. Unless the Gaelic writing made them all dissolve and not be signs anymore. But then, we get these spam accounts on here that keep getting conversed with for some reason, so here we are....... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsimButtHitsASix Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 It's alright. I had to use my Gaelic dictionary to remember how to spell "sign" in Gaelic. £15,000,000 well spent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I like the seethe about the Poll Tax write-off. Because we should totally be chasing folk for debts dating back thirty years. Also, the abject cheek of claiming that Westminster would do a better job than anybody of outsourcing IT services, considering the long, long tradition of making an absolute c**t of anything involving computers and data! You'd be as well asking the lad from your local PC shop to take a look at it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we should totally be chasing folk for debts dating back thirty years. The figures don't even make sense. That figure (if it is even true and not just farted out by Durie's Air Freshener) will be the total amount of Poll Tax that wasn't paid. Even if the SNP never wrote that off yer ontae plums if ye think it would ever be all claimed back. As well as the amount of folk who owed it who are deid now the cost and effort of finding everyone who owed would, potentially, exceed the cost of getting it back. Especially when the majority who would be forced into paying it back would be doing so in instalments like a fiver a month. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
