THE Government should be helping the low and middle class with tax cuts instead of thinking about the high earners who will survive without cuts and will find a way to deal with it.
The Tories still have the stigma of helping the rich with no help for pensioners – who are feeling the hardship just to get by.
Politicians excuse the poor state pension by saying people are living longer.
Provided, of course, they are lucky enough to enjoy good health and don’t get ill.
