A DIEHARD Tory is struggling to blame every aspect of yesterday’s tax-raising, service-cutting Autumn Statement on immigration.
Steve Malley remains convinced that the reason he is paying more tax for less is migrants, not 12 years of Tory government, Brexit or various world crises, and is coming up with imaginative explanations as to why.
He said: “First of all, council tax rises, that’s from putting them up in four-star hotels, innit? Though that wouldn’t explain rises in say, Redcar, where they’re not exactly flooding in.
“And minimum wage going up, well they’ve all got three wives haven’t they? Then again that assumes they’re working. No, they’re all living it up on benefits, so that’s why they’re being increased. Disgusting.
“The dropping of the threshold for 45p tax, that’s for… their overpaid, public sector diversity officers maybe? Same for cuts to tax-free dividend allowances. The council gives them shares in wokeness.
“NHS funding’s up because it’s on its knees, because they all come over here riddled with disease, don’t they? While being perfectly healthy Albanian men who aren’t in any danger at home.
“So in conclusion, it’s all the fault of these illegal immigrants who I voted Tory and Brexit to stop and who there’s more of than ever.
“It has to be their fault. It can’t be my fault.”
