Do you now see how idiotic your speech was last week?
Cutting it does nothing for "middle-income" people unless middle income has now been redefined to mean highest earners in the country.
Sweet irony.
Ed Miliband = Ireland

Ed Miliband speech makes Cameron's look so polished. Labour will be hating the slickness of this performance.
Like a Dad vs a student , really I feel like a PB Tory!
Carswell has used a picture of you to illustrate his hatred of party whips

Of course, the appalling evil of Ed as Prime Minister isn't bad enough that the Tories are willing to stand by in 5% of their seats to get an alliance with UKIP...
You Conservatives said the same about the timing of Carswells defection, its all noise, you'll say the same whenever one of your MP's sees the light.
Still angry about last week.
The fact that you see anything posted on here as 'spinning' shows how out of touch with reality you are.
My guess is that Miliband will be glad not to be debating Cameron, Cameron will be glad not to be debating Farage, and I'm not sure whether Clegg will be desperate enough to debate Farage just to garner a bit more attention, since that didn't go so well for the European elections.
So the debates are unlikely to happen.
Edited, forgot the £500.
How'd the last match in Dublin turn out?
I await your plaudits on the 40% threshold....
Sounds expensive
40p tax rate only payable at 50,000 under Tories. If this speech doesn't shift polls a bit, difficult to know what will.
Expand
Any details on the timeframe so we know exactly how much of the low earners' benefits are being thrown to the highest earners?
Also, median earnings are a lot lower than the current 40% threshold, so moving that around has no impact on people on "middle incomes". It's a tax cut for the richest decile or two in society.
Ish?
Oh yes. Finally low price houses for younger first time buyers as o suggested a few months back!
Hope the child benefit tax charge threshold is moved up to in tandem.
Nice tax cut. The end of any nonsense about the Tories targetting the deficit.
Will cost an absolute fortune.
And so I rest my case Antifrank.
QED.
It is always easier for current PM's/chancellors to make announcements as they have full access to the Treasury. Opposition parties don't gain access normally until the election is called.
Wow lower taxes and extra commitments out of taxpayer.
Planet Tory
And lifting the 40p threshold significantly is something that will appeal enormously to what the Daily Telegraph and the Daily Mail call the middle class.
Of course no Guardian journalist would regard a salary as low as £50K as being the 'middle'.
Imagine having a political party that's so awful people leave it to join UKIP. #CPC14
While talking about the Tories being like a trade union too!!
That was never going to be convincing in all honesty
He lost me at "ZILCH!"
Not unless Cameron offered to expel all dem foreigners.
That one's a freebie, Dave, next time I'll expect a cheque
'Is that growing rumbling the sound of a herd of formerly disillusioned now ex-UKIP voters heading back to the Conservative fold?'
However this is fantasy.
"The government is forced to adopted UKIP policies, because people vote UKIP, the more people vote for UKIP, the more of what they want becomes government policy. Taxes, hospitals, the EU, what UKIP says in the end the government is forced to do it"
It sounded quite funny. ; )
Cameron in tears as he says "how dare" Labour suggest he'd put NHS at risk, given his own son Ivan's experience.
Date night next?
Targeting those who pull their socks up and want a better life with some good policies.
He looks passionate too. UKIP have pissed him off. Cameron with his back to the wall is a force to be reckoned with.
LOL. Indeed.
You went for deficit reduction.
The Tories went for a gigantic tax cut.
Blind indeed.
