She's not a communist - she's a social democrat of the Nordic or Scandinavian model, who generally do not like to be called socialists - but that is what they are.

She is not lying thats the domain of billy and joyce ,on the record for all to see; but i may well be mistaken.And you can not say" she knows exactly what taxes will be put in place" oh no. That sort of smearing will end up back on the one throwing the dirt as it has for holes joyce and english. Labour are fighting a clean fight, national are fighting a dirty fight; it reflects badly on them; we need standards. People are voting now and you are pushing the same old fear mongering barrow up the ever steepening hill; at least you're are being consistent but desperate in your flailing.
It will make it fairer. nothing more galling for an honest working taxpayer to see these speculators screw the renters (those hard working folk who can't come up with deposit because houses are so dear and out of reach) run their rentals at loss , then flick them after so many years for minimal or no tax; its so wrong.
Wrong ,a little nuts there fp. Everyone should have the opp to have their own home. Under national home ownership is less and less reachable then ever before imo. You know peoples properties are off the table for capital gains tax fp . You have a lot invested in property; are you mortgaged to the eyeballs?
No. I do not have mortgages these days. But if you think CGT is a good idea (and I do not say that it isn't - only that it must be properly designed) then why is it a good idea?
If it is to make it 'fair' for those who are not benefitting, then why exclude the family home? That opens the gap between haves (owners) and have-nots (tenants), and you know as well as I do that there is much concern about the gap between so-called rich, and so-called poor, or do you not care about the poor?
