      So people who don’t have children but must have them later because life is so unaffordable, and less of them, must pay more tax? Right… honestly who the fuck are these idiots leading the polls

      People in the Manchester constituency today got a letter pretending to be from a pensioner called “Patricia Clegg” who complained about winter fuel, the nhs and gender free toilets lol. They’re so manipulative and desperate it’s unreal

      If a couple with kids receives tax relief, it will be the same with all couples without children paying more tax.

      This is a classical debate about taxes.

      Germany (for example) provides tax discounts for those with children. And that can be interpreted as tax on child-free people.

      Why is it that the worst people out there are the ones so obsessed with everyone having kids

      Word on the street (i.e. PopBitch) has it that this dude lost his last election campaign (in school) to someone whose only policy was ‚A Vote For Goodwin Is A Vote For The Gays’.

      Make of that what you will.

      Im always amused by people who believe migration rates should go down and birth rates should go up simultainiously.

      If migrants should go home because Britan is full then people having more kids isnt going to make things better. If people should have more kids because jobs are going unfilled then migration solves that problem now rather than in 2 decades time.

      Is this some Musk/American evangelical talking point or something? I thought the right was against the state paying for or helping children in any way?

      Alot of people (most?) want to buy a house before having kids. You know what would set people back? Being unable to save a deposit because they’re paying more tax… because they don’t have kids!

      That would be a vicious cycle.

      They already do, this is what child tax credits and tax free childcare and child benefit is all in place for

      What if you _Can’t_ have children and don’t want a surrogate or to adopt?

    13. No-Future5309 on

      People who vote Reform should pay more tax. They seem happy enough for everyone else to struggle. Only fair they do their bit.

      This already exists in some form via child benefit. Numerically, there is no difference between people with kids getting a benefit versus people without kids paying more tax. The difference is only psychological.

    16. mozzy1985 on

      lol they wouldn’t get any tax from me because I would be out of this country with that shit. If you choose to have children that’s your tough shit you have less money. That’s part of the reason I don’t want children. I pay enough mother fucking tax that goes towards benefits families already get.

      so as a young infertile person he thinks i should get bent, got it

    18. Icy_Attention3413 on

      I do, but it’s the other way round. We all pay the same tax rate depending on our pay, and they literally get cash back.

      Reform literally have no clue.

    19. ahorne155 on

      So paying more than the average UK salary in tax isn’t enough?? Fuck off..

    21. birdinthebush74 on

      But Farage says we have too many people and it puts a strain on housing, transport, NHS etc

    22. Dramatic-Ad-4607 on

      I actually want to be a mum. Wanted to be a wife and mother since i was young but as we got older we have realised its not affordable to have children and honestly not much of a safe world to bring them into. So we are being punished for doing the right thing ?

    23. pepperyfries679 on

      Ah yes, bleed the childless and young dry to prop up the triple locked, bus pass wielding, free prescription having, asset owning cohort of pensioners that swing elections.

      God help this country.

    24. pepperino132 on

      So basically if you’re young, single and childless but working you get no assistance for anything and taxed even more, while already having a totally unworkable cost of living.

      Why do these clowns think they’re anywhere near competent enough to be commenting on policy?

    25. Steger_Affe on

      What about people who can’t have kids, or people who have lost a child, would they have to pay more tax too according to this shit stain.

    26. Vivid_Employment8635 on

      People who cost less should pay more as punishment… great logic 👍 How about Reform’s donors pay more tax instead! 

    27. WrinkleEU on

      Article reads as if he suggested a similar tax policy to Poland, in regards to a cut after 2 children, rather than imposing a tax on childless women.

    29. iamnotinterested2 on

      shame their parents were not told this interesting fact, they might have had second thoughts.

    30. coffeewalnut08 on

      Would be interesting to see what the anti-migrant crowd has to say about this. Y’all thought Reform would only milk immigrants for their tax money and nobody else?

    31. VanicFanboy on

      This is objectively an incredible idea.

      The same people on here whining about how they’ll never get a pension are the same people who don’t want kids. They’ll maybe have one at 35. The cognitive dissonance is mind-boggling.

      The average cost of raising a child is £250,000 over the first 18 years of life. That doesn’t even factor in the reduced lifetime earnings one has from having to take time out of work to prioritise them.

      If you’re childless, you’re saving £500k compared to someone with two kids, and yet those kids will pay for you not to work when you’re older. How can that possibly make any sense?
