I think the personal allowance should be raised to £10,000 so the lowest income workers are taken out of tax altogether.

Given your Party wants 'An Age of Austerity', how will you pay for this allowance increase.
Being cynical I think you are trying to say Britain's debts are a tragedy and we need deep cuts on the one hand but on the other you'll be better off under the Tories. All this without an explanation of how.
Whatever Labour is, at least it is being more upfront, clear, with one just policy it is sticking too. Believe it or not you know what it is.
