In 2011, the Government promised not to increase the tax burden on struggling families. We see clearly that promise is broken.

That is what we are here to demonstrate. We will publish our repeal Bill. There is no amending the fact that this is a fundamentally bad tax. We have shown that alternatives exist but the Government has turned its back on discussion and is only interested in further punishing struggling families who are at the pins of their collars.
