Here is a tax calculator to see how worse/better off you will be just put your before tax income in only if you only know your weekly wage times it by 52.1785 to get yearly annual income http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_depth/629/629/7290230.stm

Over a whole year it's possible because every pound over £ 15350 you gain 2p back of that pound plus their is a slight change in national insurance contributions!. But it will all be swallowed up by increaseing cost's don't believe the INFLATION rate it's a CON TRICK!.

28 spondoolies better off,but council tax has gone up,rent,water,and the usual house hold bollox.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
