As also pointed out, I absolutely loath how they manage to make cuts to every single corner of the country besides their own pocket. I hardly ever bother with politics because they're all full of brown stuff. Labour - give everyone what they want, bankrupt and eventually turn the country upside down whilst lying through elections. Tories - Take it all away, lie through elections, tears like a wet paper towel when under pressure from foreign nations.

It's hopeless, a giant game of ping pong and we're the ball.

People wonder why Afghanistan keep asking why we wish to install a government when they simply don't want one.. I think I realise now why they don't want it.

Be real here, how are employers going to fund the makeup for the tax credits? assuming they do manage, no doubt the cost of living will just rise with your pay rise

It's easy enough to say businesses have had it easy, the well off well respected business will have already been paying their employees over minimum wage. I know quite a lot of businesses that are relatively small that pay minimum wage and are still on the brink, this will knock them over the edge.

Seen the plastic bag debate? let's be real again and honest, the people complaining don't give a toss about 5 pence, they just love the chance to have a good old tory bashing rant. These are the same people that get to vote... What's the point anymore.
the answer to your question is it should come from shareholders, interesting research someone reported on shows the amount of profits taken by shareholders in the past 4 decades has steadily risen which has reduced wages and investment.

Obviously small companies which may just have a single owner are somwhat different but subsidising wages has gave companies a habit of thinking "its ok to pay low wages", that habit needs to stop.

What I fear is that osborne will back down on what is one of the few good things the tories have done and the cuts will be diverted to he most vulnerable, those without a voice, the disabled and sick.
