The bastards are cutting taxes already
All basic rate taxpayers are to be offered an income tax cut worth at least £140 in this summer’s emergency Budget, The Daily Telegraph can disclose.

The tax-free personal allowance will be raised by at least £700 to more than £7,000 under plans by the Liberal-Conservative coalition — a move that will benefit an estimated 25 million lower-paid workers and pensioners.

Anyone earning more than £35,400 will be worse off due to the planned rise in National Insurance contributions.
