I'm guessing you inherited your house

He didnt.

since there's no way a thicko like you could have
a good enough job to pay for a house that large.

Yep, the state paid for it.

It's not a council house.

I didnt mean that. I meant the state paid the mortgage when you
got the bums rush from the job you had when you bought it.

They didn't do that for long. I scrounge most money from my parents,

So thats close to his original.

I'd be paying for it myself if I'd never got ill.

although I don't have to pay taxes like you do :-)

I dont in fact pay any income tax at all,

You're retired now, what about when you worked?

Yes, I obviously did then. But I wouldnt with your current
job, thats pays below the income tax free threshold.

Yes of course it does :-)

just the equivalent of your VAT but at only 10%

You only have 10% VAT?

Yep.

FFS. We had 15%, then 17.5%, now 20%. It'll be 99% one day. Give us our lives back!

and a few other taxes like
the rates and tax on petrol and car rego etc.

Our petrol tax is something like 400%.

Ours is only 27% with the 10% VAT equivalent on top of that.

What do you pay per litre? I pay £1.29. I've been told the cost of the actual petrol is about a fifth of that.
