Labour MP (Sheffield Brightside & Hillsborough)
David Blunkett's reply
"I’m generally in support of the direction which your tax proposals lead us – how could I not be when I'm in favour of fair taxation? But the proposition of having a differential allowance for those earning less than £18k is not a practical proposition. It takes no account of the tax credits system (which is a reverse income tax, after all) or the fact that many people earning just under £18k a year actually bobble up into the £18k earnings level with overtime - and sometimes with bonuses!"
