During Prime Ministers Question's in the House of Commons, I asked the Prime Minister about the benefits of a reduction in income tax.
In 2010, somebody earning £15,000 a year paid £1700 in income tax. Today, someone earning £15,000 a year pays less than £500 a year in income tax.
I asked if the Prime Minister agreed with me that this has helped jobs, growth and self-reliance.
In response, the Prime Minister supported my statement. He said the economy has turned a corner and noted the announcement that in the past year inflation has fallen from over 11% to 3.2% and enabled the Government to cut taxes again.
I hope to see the Government cut taxes further in the near future.
