    Maybe if some of her low life unemployed cronies who prefer to demonstrate instead of actually earning a living and paying THEIR FAIR SHARE OF TAX we would not need to burden the companies who keep our lights on and homes heated with even more tax hikes

    Typical Labour, tax any businesses or individuals who have the gall to get off their backsides and work and all they'll do is give it away to the workshy, the serial single mum breeders who have no desire to ever work, and keep the borders open to let more illegal freeloaders in by the thousands each day 🤮😡

    Martin's face says it all. Socialists don't understand market economies. Or if they do, choose to lie about them.

    If I were Shell, BP or Harbour energy I'd delisted from the London FTSE and leave this country to rot. 85% tax rate is not worth investing in.

    They should be concentrating on getting 100% or more of the taxpayers money given to drug companies to fund the COVID vaccines. Crazy we paid and they take all the profit without even paying back the initial funding!

    So they have us over a barrel, sounds to me that those companies are blackmailing us,

  23. @grantsapain

    January 5, 2024 at 11:33 am

    Making the oil & gas companies pay more, causes those companies to pass the added cost on to the consumer…

    The Government is the Labour party and Tories and they work together in lockstep.
