Yearly Monthly Weekly
Gross salary £37,500 £3,125 £721.15
Income Tax £4,986 £415.50 £95.88
National Insurance £2,493 £207.75 £47.94
-----------------------------------------------------------
Take home pay £30,021 £2,501.75 £577.33

My point is purchasing power (Take home pay) and you would have understood that if you had read the thread.
There was a comparison of the average salary in Australia vs Britain but that doesn't tell much if you don't look
at the income tax.

What is your point in crying over all other taxes a citizen pays?
Paying VAT, road tax, fuel tax, electricity tax, jada jada is not something unique for Britain, they also have them in Australia.

And most, perhaps nearly all, governments don't collect enough tax. Year after year they are borrowing from young people without their consent. This can't continue forever. Taxation will get uglier.
