It has been Tory Govt policy over a number of years to not change tax thresholds.  This produces an inflationary increase in taxation year on year by stealth.  It is therefore entirely disingenuous of Jeremy Hunt to suggest that this is some new Labour policy.  If Jeremy Hunt was still Chancellor he would NOT mention it in line with previous years and since there needs to be no specific announcement of this annual increase in taxes because it simply rolls on people are not told that their taxes are going up each year.

The Tories have claimed that they are the party of low taxation but there has been an increase of taxation annually by stealth.  Taxation last year has been said to be at the highest level since the Second World War.

Yes, the £300 Winter Fuel Allowance could be claimed by those of pensionable age who were still working and wasn't means tested.

The trouble as always is when people's situation is borderline.
