Does a couple earning a combined £299,999 a year need subsidised childcare?

I don't think they do

 

times could be really tight for them...have you no heart

 

key word is earning

and on that amount how much tax do you think they pay. The child bit they get back is pennies to them, however I woulfd prefer to give it them. As opposed to the glass backed T w a t s that have never worked and WILL never work, not cos they have any kinda disability , but simply cos they are wasters.

 

Re: key word is earning

i used to have a disability, my legs used to go numb and my right knee locked. but at the stroke of a pen i've been cured ! the army and 3 civvy ortho surgeons agree i need major spinal surgury and numerous ct/mri scans also agree but i.ve managed to fanny them, but the woman who never even examaned me saw straight through my ruse and said i was fit to return to work.......................... by the way i used to drive chemical tankers

 

No, but It costs too much to means test it, I believe. More cost efficient to not bother.

 

In London, yes.

Round here a two bed flat costs half a million, and nursery care is £1,500 a month.

I know you are a genuine person, JLWBL introduced me to you years ago.

 

Re: key word is earning

What a strange comparison. 'I'd rather they get subsidised childcare than people who don't qualify for it as they aren't in employment'

 

Half a million is less than 2 years combined gross salary. Some people work full time and only earn 25k combined gross. round here a 2 bed flat costs 100k. Just saying like

 

Then when the HS2 is complete, they can move to the new Northern suburb of London.

 

Re: having had the honor to have met you Sir
