    The 5 years of bench time will come with Brexit. For you at least, since your legacy skills aren't in demand outside the country.
    As for tax on the self-employed, you must be in cloud-cuckoo land if you don't think the Tories aren't going to shaft you.
    You don't get it do you?
    The stupid have demanded more attention (i.e. money) or they'll thcweam and thcweam and all parties have to to take from the likes of us to give to them.
    Hard Brexit now!

      It may be true but it doesn't fit the “Corbyn Bounce” narrative.

        It's just another model. The "Corbyn bounce" is real and has been shown in every single poll recently.
        However it won't be enough to overturn a Tory majority.
        Hard Brexit now!

          And the big clients avoid CT altogether anyhows - I notice the Conservatives have made no mention of clamping down on this in their manifesto.

                  Why York.

                  Definitely we need fresh blood. Not more of the same.

                    and if Labour win there will be no Brexit. Simple as.

                    The EU will cut up rough, with some intentionally unacceptable offer, and Corbyn will just bottle it.
