If you are better off you have fallen on your feet.

If you are worse off on the other hand, you only need imagine what your position would be if the country went bankrupt because they ducked out of taking steps to rebuild the economy. Or would you prefer that if they left the status quo?

£151.38 better off pre-VAT?! And thats after losing child tax credits.

Guess the beers are on me.

£91 worse off but as others have stated, the model is too simple and by the rime you add in all the other factors, I expect to be living on bread and water next year. Maybe the odd swan and bottle of Cristal on a Friday as well though

£650 worse off

Really, that's diddly ..... my Honda Civic will deliver me £1,000 in fuel savings over the Impreza. Add to that Road Tax savings and I have actually taken action myself to nullify the Tory axe

Applause for those who cut their own furrow .... and don't sit and blame the government of the day!

I'm going to be about £1500 worse off I think, but since I'm self employed this won't be spread over the year this will come as an added lump to the lump I already pay for 40% tax

Just on that alone (not accounting for VAT), we'll supposedly be a few hundred quid better off.

This is interesting too:
