Hidden Income tax increase

So for the avoidance of doubt you do not believe this government has a deliberate policy to make working people poorer?

That is not an allegation I have made.

Though it is one you have falsely ascribed to me.

I would have thought incompetence, not caring, and a result of other policies, contribute more.

So you do think this government has a deliberate policy to make working people poorer?
which is it?

here's a reminder of what you wrote.

I'm very pleased that you agree that working people are paying more tax, although they are getting poorer, and that this is deliberate government policy.

"Fred smokes, although he has been advised not to, and consequently has lung cancer"

In your mind, do you claim that the advice not to smoke is a cause of his lung cancer?
