I don't think the move risks a Tory backlash. It risks a lot of crying about how unfair it is to be a higher rate tax payer and not get preferential treatment Rich Tory voters have nowhere else to go (politically) and Boris knows it. No one cares.

At least he gave tax cut to most voters - around a tenner a month

Which to a number of families living just above the breadline is quite useful.

And much better than a smack in the chops with a wet fish.

That tenner a month won’t be net gain

Nope, fully expected it.

Would've been ten times worse under Korbyn, but with an even bigger cretin in charge.

Whatever he does won’t be as bad as Korbyn was certainly going to do - he promised crazy tax increases in manifesto and that’s the promise he was going to keep.

Better than a smack in the chops with a wet fish though?
