Now, sensible people like you, fiscally educated, will surely be asking serious questions where the Ł90 billion givaway will be recuperated from.
those aren't the only tax changes they're proposing - they also want to raise the threshold for inheritance tax to Ł2.5 million - and even then make it an option to pay it to a "charity" instead of to the exchequer.

that's another massive unfunded gift to the very wealthy.
