Tim omitted to mention that Brown also increased employers' and employees' National Insurance contributions - which are simply income tax by another name. - HJ Mon, 21 Jul 2008 17:07:03 +0100 http://adamsmith.org/blog/tax-and-economy/willy-hutton-200807211736/#comment-620 I stand ready to be ridiculed here and I haven't the time to dig around the stats on this but your disregard for Hutton's suggestion is based on absolute income tax receipts rather than any relative measure (% of GDP etc.) Is there any validity to the claim when expressed like that? - Liam Murray Mon, 21 Jul 2008 10:11:42 +0100
