Sounds about right. I used to pay around £1400 for a season ticket from Fleet to Waterloo but at least the service was good. Eighty pounds a week you could get a tank and a half for that

I think the VAT increase is a big mistake especially where fuel is concerned. This results in further price increases as everything is transported by road rail or air. When inflation goes up again, there will a clamour for interest rates to rise. This will do nothing to help people in rural areas, nothing to generate business. Silly me. I thought it was only Labour who were anti motorist, now the coalition are jumping on the bandwagon. Increases in income tax are the fairest way to raise money. Spot on!

If you raise income tax and national insurance you increase the tax burden on employers, what will they do? Sack people.....

That's not true though as tax is a deduction from employees gross pay and the rate of deduction affects the net pay not the gross cost to the employer. Employers NI is an extra amount they have to pay on top of the employees salary so raising the rate does indeed cost the employer more money.
