@MatthewStadlen No. Pensioners and taxpayers are the low hanging fruit. Attack the easy targets and deflect away from the real issue of benefit cheats and illegal immigrants.

@CommonSense1978 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos The money they earn has tax paid on it. More tax probably than if they earned it themselves You did agree, you compared them to money laundering drug dealers, who by definition pay tax as that’s part of the purpose of money laundering

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos That's okay then, if you think HMRC is happy with the arrangement. 😂😂 You know when drug dealers launder money through barber shops, etc, they actually pay tax on the dirty cash declared as earnings? Are you and HMRC okay with that as well? 😂😂

@CommonSense1978 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos Why does where I’m from matter? Is tradie too difficult for you to work out? If someone is renting their deliveroo the money will be paid to their account and declared in full by deliveroo to HMRC and the tax paid More tax is actually paid as its like 1 person earned it

Two unpleasant experiences today. 1 Big man in his 20s/30s suddenly started threatening a young man who was with a female friend on the train I was travelling on. I went to sit next to the victim to protect him and his friend and called the police. 2 Drunk man in his 50s/60s at local store on the south coast throwing his weight around while waiting for the bus. Both white English men. Presumably those obsessed with cultural and ethnic identity will tell me I should be worried about white English culture after these two threatening encounters within the space of four hours?

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos Nope. If someone is renting out their deliveroo account the immigrant is still making black market money. I'm British mate, I don't know about you. A tradie is an informal term, primarily used in Australia and New Zealand, for a tradesperson. Jog on!

You’re conflating so many things that just shows you don’t have a clue You’re now talking about illegal immigrants in holding centres or hotels, before you were talking about immigrants So no illegals don’t get benefits either they get food and lodging while their claim is processed. Those aren’t ‘benefits’. I have a ton of issues with how all that’s done and we should be much tougher etc but it’s not the topic A tradie is anyone with a trade, have you lived in mars your whole life So your original point on untaxed deliveroo earnings was wrong, illegals claiming benefits wrong, immigrants conflated with asylum seekers, you’ve never heard the term tradie, arent bright enough to work it out and don’t care at all about the £10-15bn tax lost to their cash in hand work but do care about the much smaller immigrant number Other than that you’re bang on mate lol

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos So you don't call a hotel, 3 meals a day, £50 p/w, etc, costing the taxpayer £4.2billion, benefits? Clearly you went to the Ken Dodd school of accountancy. And WTF is a "tradie"? Clearly someone speaking from an ivory tower. 😁

Undocumented migrants and those without valid visas can’t claim benefits Which is why they work illegally cash in hand Deliveroo is zero cash so all the cash is tracked. Even if 5 people use 1 account tax will need to be paid on the account as if 1 person earned it Yeah mate who ever heard of a tradie working cash in hand? Ha ha and you’re the one calling other people a clown

@TheHughAnthony Reminder. In 1960, UK average weekly earnings for adult male manual workers were roughly £14 2s 1d for about 48 hours! Working 6 days a week! £5 on benefits. No free childcare, no maternity pay We can go back to the 60's, if you like. 😂😂😂

Reminder that 1/4 of pensioners live in houses worth over a 1 million pounds. The average age for being able to buy a house in the 60s was 23 to 24 years old, with house prices on average being around £2.5k. It is now 33-34 years old with average house prices being £268k.

@dave43law It's not £36billion, those pensioners immediately pay 40% of it back in tax. Don't vote Dave for chancellor! 😂😂😂

The time has come for 'state pension' to be means tested Removal of those 3 million from the equation at the very least would free £36billion to fund others
Miriam Cates@miriam_cates

By 2027, there will be 3million pensioners who pay higher or additional rate tax. These people, by definition, are in the top 20% of all UK earners. Yet they will still receive a £12K a year state pension, in a direct transfer of cash from the poorer young to the wealthier old.

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos 😂😂😂 All the while claiming benefits they're not entitled to, and getting back handed cash. Hardly your gotcha moment - when you're making out they're just poor, regular deliveroo drivers paying their way. As for tradesmen, you have no evidence to substantiate your claim. 🤡

@CommonSense1978 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos That’s not the same thing Deliveroo declares the earnings of the driver to HMRC, so the driver must pay the tax Maybe multiple use the account, so yes you could have 5/6 people all under the same earnings but the total tax is being paid Yours is a different point, thanks fool

@DaveYates86 @sophielouisecc @mrcharlesamos Fool. Immigrants without work authorisation often work for Deliveroo by renting or borrowing existing, verified accounts from legal residents. This "account substitution" loophole allows them to work under someone else's identity, with thousands of accounts potentially being used

@ReemAmirIbrahim @DeBarsham Prove it! You know that refers to pensioner households and not individuals, so it's a lie. You're not even British, why do you think you have a right to an opinion on this?

@DeBarsham 25% of pensioners are millionaires. Many are not living on the state pension. The state pension is a nice top-up that they spend on an extra holiday lol.

So, Ben Jamal and I have been convicted for organising a peaceful protest against genocide in a bizarre decision by one judge. This is a big attack on civil liberties. We will appeal. We call for a massive mobilisation in support of the Palestinian people for Nakba on 16 May.

@linmeitalks Nice try! According to the 2021 Census, Hull's population is 91.8% White (83.9% White British), with a growing ethnic minority population representing 16.1% (43,051) of residents, up from 10.3% in 2011.

This is Hull in England which is 91.8% white. There are other, predominantly white areas which look similar. While I do agree London, Birmingham plus other ethnic minority dominated areas have huge issue with cleanliness, fly tipping etc…. This is a generational, class issue. Asians black and whites decades ago took pride in their areas… human behaviour in general has gotten worse and is not specific to race or religion in the U.K. Ps call me a fool again or any other name and I’ll block you. Your behaviour is similar to the people who fly tip. Unmannered and uncouth.

@linmeitalks Fool… how long have you lived in England? Remember 20/30 years ago when cities weren’t covered in litter, when you could walk down any street without seeing a discarded mattress or kitchen appliance just chilling on the pavement..
