Do you think this is a fair way to apportion the money that is in the communal pot?
Will you be happy to pay more in the way of taxes so that these 'needy' peple get the money you seem to think they deserve?
The thread is not about me putting forward some kind of alternative policy..it's simply stating the fact that those on lower incomes are bearing the brunt of the cuts...
"Official figures published in George Osborne’s autumn statement on Tuesday indicate child poverty is set to increase by 100,000 over the coming years. And the Institute for Fiscal Studies thinktank has suggested that lower income groups are bearing the brunt of the Government’s cuts"
