The Conservative Party

People are really stupid to be taken in by a cut in inheritance tax, they dont seem to see that it affects about 5% of the population , the rich people and the odd one caught up in it , people need to look further than the headline
It may not affect many, but it does affect pretty much every one in a position of power, the majority of MPs, most people on TV, most senior people at national newspapers, and most celebrities.

When nearly everyone telling you about it has more to lose, then it's difficult to see the truth.
 
Budget called 4th March.

Tax cut bribes and May Election?
They know they are toast.
The Inheritance Tax idea is to appeal to their core vote only. It's now damage limitation I think.

However, if the touted May election is correct then the March budget will be interesting. As you say, expect something to try and whip up last minute support from floating voters. Good luck with that though as I think many floating voters are heartily sick to death of them. Whatever it pans out to be, it won't be enough.

The Tories will have already done the calculation and, by giving tax cuts, which is totally against the grain for them, there’ll be a couple of strategic points. The first will be buying a few of their wavering voters while the main point will be that it will leave the incoming government in an even bigger mess, allowing the Tories to attack them at will and use it as a main point when the next GE comes around.

A bit of a travesty what the Tories have been allowed to get away with and one that will have far reaching consequences for the nation as a whole.

Absolutely agree

These are my thoughts. The tax breaks will be aimed at their core.
