RE: Tax grab proposal planned as bigger & back dated3 Oct 2022 11:35
It puzzles me why virtually everyone who posts on these boards (particularly on O&G) is unashamedly selfish and doesn’t give a **** about how at least half the population is affected. Surely it’s possible, and mentally more comforting, to take advantage of the current oil-supply squeeze without having to decry any effort to make life less unequal for most and long-term sustainable? Btw, I remember Denis Healey and also a lot of the 50s, 60s and 70s - enough to know that average living conditions were much better than in the decades ushered in by Thatcher’s economic experiment. Finally, a little self awareness is called for by right-wingers here: Cameron, May, Boris and Truss. Jesus H Christ!
