Hayes & Harlington - Victoria/London Oyster Cards

I'm not sure what date you're thinking of, but ITYF that that was not a real rate of tax on earned incomes because of the 'two-ninths earned income allowance'. And I suspect that at that date, whatever it was, there was far less of a subsidy for public transport than there is now, in real terms. 1966. I paid tax, after allowances, at 35% on the remainder. I wasn't earning very much - I was 20. As for the subsidy, you may well be correct - I just paid my bus fare and Birmingham Corporation Transport got me wherever I needed to go within the city boundary. -- Alex |
