Javid claims Tories are still ‘party of low taxation’ after £12bn health levy – live

Good morning. Boris Johnson takes a close interest in how his government is reported by the national newspapers and, having announced a £12bn tax rise that clearly breaks a manifesto promise, he might have expected a mauling. Although the coverage is certainly critical, it could have been worse.

We won't allow foreign workers and now effectively we tax low paid care workers more which makes it even more unattractive for people to do it. How much of a pay rise do low paid care workers now need to keep just at same level and not have a pay cut?

Highest tax burden ever, Javid. kill us with taxation, but have the balls to be honest

Labour would have taxed us to the point there would be no point working.

Tory Tax Rises! BorisJohnsonisaSocialist

The Tories have never been the party of low taxation. Any reductions in income tax were nullified by VAT and other indirect tax rises.

The Conservative Party are now as dead as Geronimo the alpaca.

Social care: New tax to fund reforms, PM announces - BBC News“Everybody has relatives who can potentially face the cost of care” PM Boris Johnson says the new health and social care tax rise is “reasonable” and “fair” Latest: If you are going to tax us, we demand a cull of the management first. Use the money properly rather than lining the pockets of those in non-jobs and characters played by Kenneth bloody Williams. So says the billionaire It's pretty galling for a multimillionaire/billionaire who's currently building an indoor swimming pool/gym at his mega mansion to declare that we all must pay more in taxes whilst wearing a 2 thousand pound suit and equally pricey watch/belt/shoes. It's utterly beyond parody.
