Draining struggling public companies of money to fund an election bribe is yet one more Tory con trick.
If Jeremy Hunt counts on his anticipated 2p lower in National Insurance to dig his cronies out of the mire he’s sadly mistaken.
Expect deep cuts to pay for this, which can spark an exodus of fed-up nurses, academics and different overstretched frontline staff.
We doubt voters will likely be fooled by the return of a comparatively small quantity of the large further sums in tax the Tory Treasury will seize.
The Resolution Foundation says these on underneath £27,000 will nonetheless lose out from frozen Income Tax and National Insurance thresholds, with these on £16,000 dropping nearly £500.
Families who’ll be worse off on the subsequent basic election than they had been on the final in 2019 are additionally enduring worse companies.
They received’t be tricked by Hunt’s snake oil.
