According to that calculator I'll be £546 better off, like you said, we'll see!!

umm £248, would be more if it wasn't for booze and petrol !!

£286 apparently but now with 2 cars the cat i think thats going to be -£286 lol

£991 worse off, mostly down to loss of child benefit.

wow a whole £ 9.07p

£432 up, I'll believe that when I bloody well see it.

£309 betterer off, but taxes and NI are not straightforward for me so I dunno really.
And I smoke duty free fags, couldn't tell you the last time I bought a pack from local shops...couldn't even tell you what they cost..

Royal Navy is Worserer orfft . . . New Pocket Battleship . . . .

At least £7.50 for a premium brand

We'll all be worse off at the end of the day as inflation starts to climb, wages stay the same, and that £150Bn of 'help for homes' cash (our taxes) is funnelled towards shoring up the property market in London and the South East.

Cynic

Come the revolution on Sept 18th 2014 , it'll all change huh ???

Let's face it, it can't be any worse than the current situation.

Alastair Darling was on the news earlier telling us we'd be better off staying in the union and in the next sentence, how the country was being run into the ground by the ConDems.
(maybe he wasn't listening to himself speaking.. )

Still, you can't trust the bastards since it's their jobs on the line and any possibility of a future labour government into the bargain when/if they lose all the Scottish seats.

-edit- p.s. Apparently I'll be £195 worse off, and that's without taking into consideration that my savings are losing 3% a year at the moment. (£30 per £1000)

£75 worse off if i wasn't married.
£200 up because I am married.

Maybe I should setup my own cult and marry lots so I can retire early.

I am all of £2.09 to the better, better check the back of the sofa for that....


or become part of ross's cult but a southern branch and marry myself off lots of times

£540 better off

Should I put that towards my wedding or spend it on my mistress? (Batcat)

Don't forget pre nups . . . or you'll be ruined by the D.I.V.O.R.C.E (big yin song) settlements

£623 better off....we'll see because food will go up, bills go up etc etc and no Payrise for the NHS for years.

£540 better off. Really? i'm sure I wont notice.

Fair making me chuckle all these "I'll be X amount of £££" better off . . . .
Yeah, like when did ANY government last give (average some of you report) a tenner (£10) per week raise ~ Hmmm Especially with financial times as they are . . . Smoke and Mirrors . . . Smoke and Mirrors, Ladies and Gents.

Call me an old cynic, but, there ain't no such thing as a free lunch !!! Someone is being shafted, and you can bet it ain't the rich.

But I do apologise. I'm breaking the forum[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], I'll find a mirror and have a stern word with myself

+£500 for us.

Yeh. But gas prices have just doubled. Booo

£425 better off.

I wouldn't vote for the Blue Nasties if you put a gun to my head.
