Lib Dem tax plans will help local families

Hastings & Rye Lib Dems have been in Bournemouth this week to hear from their Leader, Nick Clegg, on new tax proposals.

The Lib Dems have agreed tax cuts for low and middle income families, paid for by increases in green taxation and on the wealthy.

Parliamentary campaigner Nick Perry said,

“Lib Dem tax plans are a clear demonstration that we are the only party that is serious about social justice. Local families who are having to cope with more expensive food, fuel and utility bills will clearly benefit.”

Nick Clegg gave his closing speech on Wednesday.

“I will never support the Tory idea that you cut taxes for millionaires and the benefits somehow trickle down,” he said.

“That is not what struggling families need. They need their money back.”
