I notice that it emerged last week that the Tories’ proposed tax plan to cut Child Tax Credits for households on more than £50,000 per year in total would raise only £45million – not the £400million that they claimed it would.
In fact to raise £400 million they would have to cut Child Tax Credit from couples earning as little as £16,000 each.
Can Wirral Tories answer the following question – is this mis-calculation simply a sign of the Tories lack of experience and inability to do their sums or do they intend to remove Child Tax Credit from couples earning as little as £16,000 each?
