This has been happening for years and instead of doing anything to protect children successive governments have made the situation worse. This isn't just on councils. It is part of failings on a State level.

Dividends are taxed at marginal rates of 8.75%, 33.75%, and 39.35%, no national insurance is levied.
Wages taxed at 20%-45% +NIC.
Aligning taxation of dividends with wages could raise £6bn a year. Even higher if national insurance is also charged.

This is an excellent, depressing, analysis. Trump accuses Democrats of treason, yet he is the one colluding with Russia, selling out allies, betraying NATO, and surrendering US interests to the diktats of a foreign nation. Trump is a deeply corrupt, compromised, craven Quisling.

A few weekends ago my husband & I were away, trying to relax and spend time together after the death of our son. Whilst there an accident happened at the factory he runs, he spent ages on his phone & laptop helping to sort out the response. But this bastard took holiday during our biggest crisis!!
