Liz Truss today proclaimed her tax cuts are “fair”, while sitting in front of a big graph that showed they’ll give the rich 235 times more than the poor.
The frontrunner for Prime Minister was confronted with the effect of her decision to reverse April’s National Insurance rise from 12% to 13.25%.
The respected Institute for Fiscal Studies said the change will give the poorest tenth just £7.66 a year. By comparison the richest tenth gain £1,801.89.
