Another one I heard from Martin Lewis yesterday evening, pensioners will not have to pay income tax on their state pension, even if/when the pension exceeds the 20% tax threshold, which it will do in 2027.
However, they will have to pay tax on their occupational pension.
Penson income has always been subject to tax, it's just that the SP has always been less than your personal allowance, so the applicable tax rate is 0%. The SP is always payed as the first tranche of your income.

What happens at the moment is the amount of your SP is deducted from your personal allowance. So if your SP is (say) £10K, and the 'normal' personal allowance is £12570, then your tax code will be 257 (12570 - 10000 = 2570), rather than 1257. This means any other income provider (work, occupation pension or private pension) will pay the first £2570 tax free, and then deduct 20% on everything above that.

If/when the SP exceeds £12570 it makes no sense for the govt to pay it all out, and then HMRC try to claim it back in tax. It would get really messy for pensioners whose only source of income is their SP. They'd end up filling in self assesement tax returns every year.

There must be some people whose SP already exceeds their PA. Anyone on the pre 2016 system with significant S2P/SERPS could be receiving close to £16K. I wonder how that is treated at the moment?

Hence my tax code changing from 12???M to 38M  ;D

The fencers who came yesterday morning and took down my side gate and 6ft panel down the side of my house which was knackered. Then the delivery of the new stuff was late so he said he'd go and have look at another job and come back and finish after lunch.

The new stuff came, and then the fencer phoned and said he'd now be coming back in the morning at 7.30am. It was absolutely lashing down at 7.30am and he didn't come which wasn't surprising, but haven't seen him yet and he's not answering my calls FFS.  >:(

British builders, backbone of the country. >:D

How to become a builder?

F*uck about at school and leave with no qualifications. Then buy a knackered flatbed and you suddenly become an expert in roofing, guttering, tree cutting, drains, fencing, driveway cleaning and laying. :)
And then earn at least £200 a day, and only put half through the books. Nice work for a young fit bloke.  :)

Fixed that for you, Albs :)

Many thanks.  :y ;D

Im in a salary sacrifice pension scheme.
Im a state pensioner who is still working. The fiscal drag of tax allowances remaining unchanged mean I effectively pay 20% tax on my state pension, and inflation will eat into my standard of living.
One of the reasons Im still working is that Gordon Brown hammered those of us who were responsible enough to pay into private pensions out of our wages at the time.
There should be a law against Labour being in charge of the countries finances, even if they are in Government.

High tax, high spend budget.
They claim the number one priority is economic growth, but high tax / high spend means this is unlikely in the extreme.
Economic illiteracy yet again, but its in Labours DNA.

Joan Branson. 80.
Poor woman had to put up with that prick for 50 years. It would have been fairer if she outlived him and had some time on her own.  ::)

I dont think it will do too much harm tbh.
Similar to the desperate MSM trying to drag up racist remarks from Farage when he was a schoolboy.
Many people are totally disillusioned with Labour / Tories lies, incompetence and taking the electorate for granted, they are going to give Reform a chance, and hope they will do better.
