So why do Conservative taxes go up?
To fund sorting out the mess left by the Socialists.
HTH

So why do Conservative taxes go up?

They will go up to plug something like a 100 billion deficit for this year plus other accumulated New Lie deficits up to 2010. It's scandalous that New Lie NEVER balance the books and always leave it to the Tories!!!![]()
David Cameron as PM - will be just as bad as Tory Bliar

It used to be a question of how you like to pay tax, directly or indirectly.
New Labour should really be called New Conservative, because that's what they are, indirect Stealth taxers. Yeah the Conservatives were low taxers of direct income but they are part of the reason (with new labour) that we live in such a rip off country. One where goods and services are amongst the dearest in europe.
I think most people are just fed up of being patronised, reduce the stealth taxes on fuel, make the streets safe, and stop creating laws with improportianate penalties for law abiding people who occasionally make a misdemeanor.

So let's get this straight - when the Tories put up taxes it is to pay for Labour errors, and when Labour put them up it's to pay for benefit scroungers? Is that seriously your analysis?

3.7 Billion claimants of incapacity benefit, many of whom are fraudulent
If only someone told them there are less than 70 million people in this country

A slight oversimplification, but there is no doubt that the Tories will have to raise tax to plug New Lie's deficit in 2010.
There are many areas where New Lie is overspending or wasting taxpayer's funds.... eg:
Overpayments on Tax Credits due to computer errors.... 5.3 Billion written off since 2003!!
Dumping Thatcher's EU rebate thanks to Blair is costing extra Billions each year !!
Donations abroad.... 800 million to India recently !!
Sold our gold at loss of 7 Billion !!
Illegal War on Iraq !!
3.7 Billion claimants of incapacity benefit, many of whom are fraudulent
Scotland gets 1,000 pounds per head more than England per annum !!
GPs' new contracts that were wrongly costed costing Billions !!
PFI..... costing 100s of Billions and very poor value
NHS computer system costing 22 Billion and much of that written off !!
Public sector pensions.. failure to bring in line with private sector is costing Billions and is unsustainable... another job for the Tories !!
.... and the list goes on........................... !!!![]()
