Coalition Government and Youth Unemployment


Telegraph: Reports that the Liberal Democrat Deputy PM Nick Clegg is pushing for a freeze on tax credits to working families as to pay for a one billion youth unemployment plan. If you think about it folks its very right wing idea, why should working families get any tax credits, its interesting that there is resistance from the Conservative side to this idea. If the Liberal Democrats are pushing this policy the Conservatives have to make sure that the Liberal Democrats are up front in announcing this policy. One can argue if one member of family is earning more that thirty thousand year as an example they should not get any tax credits or vastly reduced, this blog is not supporting this idea, as it wants to see the details. The problem is that families expect tax credits as a right, not something that is granted based on need, lets see how the polls react this news. If Nick Clegg is pushing this then there is no chance Labour would ever form a Coalition Government with him, they will be shouting the House of Commons down if this is the policy.
