No fan of the Tories but I think Inheritance Tax is wrong anyway. Your personal wealth has already been taxed.

Why are banks & steel plants given equivalence? Apples & pears. The Port Talbot plant is losing £1m a day - good investment for taxpayer?

Anna Soubry is even in a muddle trying to explain it - Cameron didn't pay Capital Gains Tax, he says he only paid income tax #bbcqt

There's a perception that there's a huge wedge of UK cash going to EU every year - it's less than 0.5% of annual gov spending #bbcqt

"I read a statistic recently.. '9000 veterans'.. what about them?" WTF.. That's a number mate, not a statistic 🙄 #bbcqt

RT @gsoh31: Northern Ireland poll: 2-to-1 for #EUref #Remain. If Eng drags Scot, Wales *and* NI out, we are going 2b in deepest hole you ca…

@W9_EXILE If there was any merit in claims that FOIs were being suppressed, the (reputable) papers would be all over it.

@W9_EXILE While we're chatting - why are BT so against CSH? Surely more cyclists only improve congestion. Is yr real enemy not private car?

@W9_EXILE can you provide an official link to their figures please? Would be interested to read more
