Labour also want to prevent disguised self-employment and close loopholes used by hedge funds to avoid stamp duty

Hard work going after multi-millionaire tax avoiders. So much easier and more lucrative to liquidate all those Tory voting IT contractors...

Nothing new here, Labour detest the self employed, small companies, and any non-public sector, non unionised form of business.

Don't worry about it.

It'll be business as usual come May the whatever. Tory + lib dem coalition.

So certain of this, in fact, that I feel I should have a little flutter.

The Tories have said much the same, though - they will crack down on false self-employment that is used as a tax dodge.

They detest everything apart from unions, multinationals, chavs, immigrants and anyone who hates the west

So both want to appease the smaller and smaller amount of "hardworking families" on PAYE....

Still an improvement on The Green Party, same with brass knobs on. Think I would vote for Vlad the Impaler, or even Milliband, than the Green Party.

PS Actually, if Vlad the Impaler was running, he'd be my favourite option.

Green Party = Communist Party

Green Party = Communist Party

Indeed. Being a rabid nature fanatic (badgers before people!) I ought to be a Green supporter but green seems to be an afterthought with them whenever I've looked on their website. Looked at Caroline Lucas's and it's all been about supporting Unison and Unite.

[xoggoth]

Just did a check and it seems that Vlad the Impaler liked to torture insects as a boy so I withdraw my support.
