I am sure if farmers will consider not only the outgoings but the incomings, they will in present circumstances be encouraged to meet their labourers.
In an ordinary household, one has a duty to keep in some balance one's outgoings and incomings.
I am not trying to magnify the figures, but the incomings amount to about £250,000,000 and the outgoings £200,000,000.
We cannot equate money with money; outgoings with incomings.
An economic slow-down adversely affects incomings and outgoings.
All the outgoings would be clear outgoings and there would be no incomings at all.
Only 11 years ago, then, the spending and the taxation, the incomings and the outgoings, of this country and its economy were in balance.
Elderly and frail people, whose incomings are frozen, see their outgoings increasing every year.
