Do you feel squeezed...?

Question

Alistair Darling said the British People are `feeling squeezed`......

What DOES he mean?

Does he mean at last we are waking up to the fact that this is a very expensive country to live in, and overtaxed too?

If this is what he means, why is he talking in Politician`s gobbledy-**** - why doesn`t he just say what he means.

I`m a bit puzzled by this remark. Are YOU feeling squeezed - or over-taxed?

Answer 1

Overtaxed - especially in terms of green and mean motoring taxes.

Answer 2

Yes, we're skint but don't worry, this country can still afford to give £30million to the Palestinians:

Answer 3

No not squeezed fed up off self serving politicians feeding cattle straw disguised as hay!

Answer 4

By world standards we are a wealthy nation.    Things are tighter now (which, hopefully, may teach us SOME sense)    We are under rather than overtaxed. (Certainly at the top)

I do not feel particularly squeezed but have been used to coping on a basic income.

Answer 5

Squeezed!That about sums it up!But there is more to come!someone has to pay for all these handouts!!

Answer 6

My wallet,s certainly feeling squeezed under labour.

Answer 7

He means that things are Way to expensive and higher taxes would just push most of the country into poverty..All because of the credit crunch...

Answer 8

I personally feel that my balls are being squeezed by this pompous two faced prat Brown and his cronies,,the sooner this rabble are voted out the better us Brits will feel,,well the working class folk anyways,,the rich want them to stay for obvious reasons,,in this country it's rob the poor to pay for the rich
