If anyone is struggling to pay the council tax on their £2m house will happily take ownership of the house, pay the council tax on it myself, and let them live there rent free for the rest of their lives
Will. It is going to be fine
Big thing I do think Motability needs to stick around for for people like me* is the financing. Very useful to be able to turn a stream of monthly payments into a car with no upfront cost
*except they’re normal about cars
Personally I’d go “VAT exemption for modified cars” because those both cost more and have reduced resale value, and then let the open market handle people choosing to use PIP payments to buy unmodified cars
Well, right, and the fact it’s harder to take my daughter on public transport is what the DLA mobility component is for. Most things I can spend that on are VATable, but not if I choose to get a car, and not if I choose to then top up that car to be a much nicer car
I think the problem comes with the tax advantage that results? I can see why I should be able to get a VAT free car with adaptations for my daughter, that seems like a good way to adjust for the extra cost. I’m not sure why buying a production car should be VAT free, nor why my upgrades should be
Vast majority of Motability vehicles are unmodified, fwiw.
The flip side of course is that it becomes very very important to actually provide a functional state if you’re taxing people which er. Britain’s fumbling a bit
Mansion tax? That's a quarter of a gen-z-drinking-less. Road charging? Four fifths. Capital gains on employee ownership? About half.
extremely, career-endingly illegal for this to have happened in this specific way
From now on, when discussing the budget, please use “is this measure bigger than the cost to the exchequer of gen Z drinking less” as your metric for assessing whether something actually raises or costs a significant sum
this seems good. 👍
guys, guys, it's fine. the obr has taken the pdf offline. damage completely controlled
Posting to policy pipeline, check.
As one of the kids/grandkids whose parents did this, it fucking sucks, I hate it, and they see so much less of their grandkids as a result
