Tax shake-up for France

Published

on



http://www.euronews.net/ The Paris government is planning to cut the amount that French companies pay in contributions to the state for health-care and pensions and make up the lost income with higher value-added tax on purchases.

The plan to raise sales taxes before April’s presidential election did not find favour on French streets. One woman complained: “Consumers will pay more for what they buy as the sales tax increases, which will reduce our purchasing power. That is not good news, and it’s not a very good start to the year.”

    April 7, 2024 at 4:23 pm

    @tjohn1986 Lol don't repeat that lame ass arguement that the republican rich boys always talk about. That's a bullshit arguement. They don't even contribute to the economy as it is and you give them bailouts only for them to pay themselves bigger bonuses while cutting the workforce. Your arguement is weak sauce.

    Why does every country get it so wrong. It must be corruption that they would raise the VAT rate when CEO's and Directors are paying themselves the highest wages in recorded history. If you want to get the economies rolling again then you tax the rich, make offshore bank accounts illegal, ban derivatives trading and take the money back from the banks.

Relief for some Palestinians, Egypt partially reopens Rafah crossing

The Rafah crossing between Egypt and the Gaza Strip has been partially reopened after being closed since Monday.

Thousands of Palestinians on either side have been waiting for the Egyptian authorities to ease restrictions.

Egypt’s new army-backed leadership does not have a good relationship with Palestinian group Hamas, who control Gaza and had supported ousted Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi.

Over 1,000 people passed through everyday when Morsi was in power.

The crossing has been completely shut since the killing of 25 Egyptian police in Sinai. Egyptian authorities cited ‘security reasons’.

Describing his situation, Abdallah al-Haw said: “If I can’t cross now, I’ll lose another term at university and will be delayed when starting the next term. This is a huge problem for Palestinian students in Egypt. It will cost us more money.”

Others are fed up, like Gaza resident Musa Islibi who said: “I am going to Saudi Arabia. I have come here to try and cross a couple of times in the past few weeks. I’m tired of it.”

It is not only Palestinians who have been left hanging about.

“I have been waiting since Monday to pass back through Rafah crossing to Egypt. Here is it’s very crowded today, there are many, many, many people who’ve been waiting for a long time,” said British man Andrew Karney from inside the terminal.

For people wanting to get in and out of Gaza, the Rafah crossing is the only one that borders Egypt and not Israel.
