I suspect that the Lib-Dems won't be making these decisions.

They might if they go into another coalition

One key policy of UKIP is to abolish the inheritance tax altogether with obvious benefits for families with estates that are valued over the nil rate band threshold of £300,000. The additional good thing is that families can avoid dealing with serious financial issues at a time of loss.

Yes, if they have any MPs at all, after the next election.

No doubt their financial wizardry will make us all very rich.

Yes, nobody has money on their mind at such a time (bags of hollow laughter!).

The Conservative party are cutting income tax and fuel duty which is great news for high income earners who need to drive between their work and rural homes. This strategy also puts focus on having to cut public services in order to pay off the national deficit and balance the books.

It looks like Labour and Conservatives may go into coalition together.

We're pretty much screwed because we live in the UK! (Nothing to do with the referendum.)

The Guardian has published an article that suggests that a Labour-Conservative coalition is a serious possibility in May 2015. It sort of makes sense really if you are hellbent on keeping the status quo of Westminster elitism. Let us be right, the other parties like UKIP, Greens and SNP are gamechangers that offer real change and a Lab-Con coalition would shut them out of having any influence on government.. Labour and Conservatives are really just playing ping-pong politics to make us think they are two serious opposition parties when they aren't.

Unionists are falling into despair and desperation. We just need to sit back and watch them chewing their own legs off. Popcorn anyone?
