Sorry if I come across as a "bad news" bean counter Adrian, but the way the UK tax system has developed means that what is a common sense assumption to many does not hold when the tax is calculated and the financial pain you mention arises. The other group who will suffer are those who have worked hard across their life and have debt free housing in retirement but the location makes them liable for reasons they have no control over and at a time in life when such costs are unwelcome. There was an interesting article in last night's Evening Standard and the growing protest campaign of this group. |
