Liberal Democrats cutting your taxes by £600 a year
kSectionSeparatorToken ``Liberal Democrats are working for a stronger economy and a fairer society, so that everyone can get on in life. That's why we are cutting taxes for working people. ``Today's announcement means that by April, Liberal Democrats will have cut your income tax bill by £600 a year. ``Liberal Democrats want fairer taxes, which is why we made raising the tax-free allowance our number one priority at the General Election -- so important that we put it on the front page of our manifesto. ``When times are tough, with rising bills and wages not keeping pace with inflation, we want to give people real, practical help. ``Cutting Income Tax will not deal with all of those problems, but it will help. And I hope it will make a big difference to every family in this country.''
The Conservatives have unveiled a £4.8 billion package of tax cuts for savers and pensioners to be funded by cutting public spending immediately.
