"According to Ed Balls own words….. They would hope to raise enough money annually from approximately 70, 000 properties to accommodate a basic rate 10p tax starting threshold on the first 1000 pound earned by approximately 25 million people….!. I havn't done the maths... ! " That is what economists used to call "Maths by Balls" He was crap then and he will be crap in future! Great soundbite with no chance of working! IMHO | |||

"I for one am NOT infavour of the 10p tax, Personal allowances are going up to £944o in April. We all moan about roads not gritted in snow, bin collections, state of area's well this comes at a price. Keep the 20p tax band but use the money to make this country proud again . PS cut the foreign Aid" You know what? I am going to agree with you! Anyone on minimum wage for a 40 hour week will have a minimal difference to their income, it just sounds good! Any money they lose may be taken up with benefits or if not, it will be deamed they have a living wage. Most will get tax credits anyway or one of the other unessary benefits that Tony and his cronies bought elections with.. I like this idea.. Just my opinion! | |||

"So Ed wants to bring this back which will be paid by 'Mansion Tax' on £2m properties. This would certainly help those at the bottom end of the income scale. Would you be in favour?" it will be very very minimal wealth redistribution at best..... 1% on anything about 2 million ecomonists say will only raise 1.7 billion a year... so what you are looking at is probably a minimal 10p tax band at best.... politically though... very smart since it was a lib dem manifesto pledge that wasn't taken up by the coalition... so puts them in an awkward position.... and a lot of back bench tory mp's were calling for something like this in the next budget so gazumps any move the chancellor was thinking of doing.... | |||
