The high earners are already paying most of the income tax UJ. Also the tax threshold has risen from £6,475 in 2010 to £11,500 today.

The Toxic Tories can throw all the money they want, but I will never vote for them while there is breath in my body.

You do realise that any extra in the poorest paid's wage packets is balanced by the deduction from any in work benefits they may receive so yes I do.
A mate of mine said to great I am going to get an extra £800 because of the tax cuts for the better off, he would much prefer and many are like him that instead the money was put to better use.
