WYRE FOREST LIB DEMS VOTE TO END INCOME TAX
Sun 27th Sep 2009
The Liberal Democrats have voted to take four million people out of income tax altogether. Wyre Forest sent a delegation to the party's Bournemouth conference last week to hear Shadow Chancellor, Vince Cable propose to raise the standard threshold for income tax to £10,000. This would save everybody paying income tax on between £10,000 and £100,000 per year up to £700 per year and take millions of low paid workers and pensioners out of tax altogether. The scheme would be paid for by closing tax loopholes for the rich.

| Quotes of the Week |

"Anyone who wants to pass laws in this country should pay this country's full taxes and not hide behind the special offshore status of non-doms. Non-doms have to tell the taxman that their first allegiance is to another country. No-one should be a British lawmaker whose first allegiance is not to Britain. "
Chris Huhne, Liberal Democrat Shadow Home Secretary

"I think people are entitled to expect a sensible, stable government at a time when the country is facing very, very acute choices. We take what the markets are worrying about immensely seriously. We will not take any risk with the creditworthiness of the economy. "
Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats
