Supply side tax cutters or environmental interventionists?
Roger Helmer has recorded a podcast for Tory Radio in which he further outlines his views on the Quality of Life report due out imminently.
In the podcast he expresses delight that David Cameron is distancing himself from the proposal for parking charges on out of town stores.
In the podcast you can hear Roger comment,
"Much of the stuff in the Gummer Goldsmith proposals is absolute anti Conservative nonsense….."
"We really have to make up our mind as Conservatives whether we're actually supply side tax cutters or whether we're socio environmental tinkerers and interventionists...."
New Government Health Warning
This story really does show that there should be a Government Warning along the lines of, "Warning - this Government is bad for business" Perhaps the EU will make it mandatory for it to appear on all Government publications along with graphic images that highlight the effect Government has by continually meddling with the tax system.
No wonder I have had to shell out on an accountant given the huge complexity of our tax system.
This is one book that is certainly NOT on my reading list.
Where does she get it from?
She really is unbelievable. Polly Toynbee is clearly on a different planet from the rest of us, as demonstrated quite beautifully in her latest article for the Guardian. I have no problem with people being cautious about John Redwood's policy proposals that were discussed at great length in the media yesterday, but as usual Polly Toynbee spent the entire article trying to stoke the flames of crisis and disaster in a future Conservative government.
Her arguments are painfully rooted in our socialist past, as she seems to have forgotten that her vision of a "stronger, not a weaker, state" brought this country to its knees many years ago and the Labour party has done its best to move away from those ideals ever since.
Other memorable points include claiming that letting employers use common sense in health and safety laws is a bad thing, and she clearly would like us to adhere to a 48-hour week without exception - thereby collapsing the British economy overnight.
Have a read of the article if you want to be transported back to the last time that left-wingers were in charge.
