Oh is that because "pensions are not a benefit" and "they paid in all their lives"???? FFS! 🙄

I was the same at Barclays (when Epstein's pal was at the helm in 2015). Always wondered how Vernon Kay's wife had got the gig. 😳

Hmm. I wonder why no one has ever built one 😳🙄

They look absolutely terrifying. No one's gonna mess with them!

Vindication of stealth taxes. People "don't mind" what they can't see, The ISA cut is in their faces, which is why they hate it. Same with IHT.

When I applied for a similar job I was horrified that they wanted me to do a blood test. They said they would take anyone on with Type O

Same author has done the series"I'm a Waspi woman and ..." usually a tale of how she's had to cancel a cruise, or live off a final salary public sector pension. If it's not ragebait it's shameful ignorance of the issue in the round. I think she considers herself a feminist champion or some nonsense

Huge mistake planning transport solely for commuters and theatre goers (ie pack 'em in, min seating, no room for luggage as short distance travel assumed) when service serves or feeds into railway terminals and airports and needs to accommodate not just cases but also elderly, children, prams etc.

Seriously, I have an old bank account with about ten quid in it and I keep it because I still have a cheque book for that account dating from about 2007 (it has a date in it), When I need to pay by cheque I transfer £££ from my "real" bank account so I can withdraw from the duff one. Total lunacy!

😂. Sorry, shouldn't laugh. But it's up there with "drop into a branch" or "bring us an original utility bill" 🙄

Still dying to know the real story behind the Telegraph's fake story abt a family with kids called something like Harry, Barry and Larry who cd only take four foreign holidays a year now there's Vat on school fees. Case study cooked up by Saltus and their PR agency Boldspace. But how did it happen?

If it had been it would probably have been proof of the existence of God 😉

Not the Waspis then? 😉

My father once came home from work with the tale that his secretary had that day asked him what "range eggs" were as she'd seen a sign outside a farm the previous weekend saying they were giving them away free😳

George Osborne always seems to manage to make extra time in his day, despite no previous experience in most of the zillion things he takes on ... Actually don't repeat that, someone might take the suggestion seriously 😳

She's lying 😜

I think a country that can't even be decisive on packaging colours for salt and vinegar and cheese and onion crisps and milk bottle tops hasn't got much room to talk

I had them down as deranged squid - but Cthulhu is probably right 😜
