She is set for life now. Child support for the next 18 years from a multi millionaire.

Apparently she had tried doing this before with both Mick Jagger and Clint Eastwood
 
Tbph I don't really care about anything to do with this budget, my only real thought is we don't have a party that's now stealng our taxes and giving it to their mates, so longer term, years down the line things can only improve. Not happy with all this compensation shhite that's being paid out though, £11.5B just for the blood scandal, oh do fook off.
why you moaning about the tainted blood compo and not the Post Office compo ?

Because the PO is only 1.5B....whereas the blood comp is 11.5B....but truth be known I'm moaning about both of them. Just I chose to moan about the much larger figure.

They'll delay that compensation until they all or most die.

Should change Thier names to Ukraine they'll get billions next week

Oh well that's fine then<laugh>

Lot's of injustices in life all around the world, yet people get a free health service and these days it's where there's blame there's a claim. I think if you agree to use a free health service you shouldn't be entitled to anything, go private instead and at least pay for it. I've had similar discussions with my own consultant, if things go tits up just don't wake me up. I'm a realist when it comes to life.

Does compensation get taxed do you know?

Would be so UK to delay paying it out until they die then the kids get taxed on it<laugh>

I doubt compensation gets taxed as a pure guess, although if it's passed onto the estate it might be a lower amount.

well the state let people have transfusions / plasma knowing they may contain Hepatitis or HIV causing massive financial losses to the victim and their families

Oh and experimenting on the Haemophiliacs at Treloar school but yeah why should they get compo .

Why should they be compensated for hating homosexuals?

don't think so but this has been dragged out and you can't help but suspect there was a hope that most victims would be dead and the families may give up the fight .
If they had just offered decent compo when it first came to light it would have been so much cheaper

Sorry only just seen this.

Like I said, if you use a free health service there should be no compo, if you want insurance go private. Lot's of injustices in life, most people have to suck it up and get on with it, much like getting sent to the front line against your wishes.

In a way i used to heavily agree here.

I think the compensation culture is crazy and doctors making mistakes.

The post office scandal was the higher ups systematically going after and criminalising innocent people. I'm more than happy for them to be compensated and would be far happier for those higher up to go to prison and have their assets confiscated.

I guess if you have been given a death sentence from a systematic issue like the blood scandals then maybe some compensation wouldn't go amiss but the stupid amounts being paid out i think shouldn't be that high.

Don't disagree with you Bobby. And I'm certain we could put £11.5B to good use, would fill half of that black hole that Labour keep on about.

how the **** could a family with a haemophiliac child go private for their plasma transfusions
