Kristian Chapman, Lib Dem

Lib Dem PPC (Aberdeen North),
Kristian Chapman's reply

"Many thanks for your email. I am in full agreement that the tax system in the UK is simply unfair. I, as a Liberal Democrat, fully support the tax policies outlined in our manifesto which will raise the threshold to £10000, close the loopholes for the wealthy and private corporations and start taxing the banks, not the people. At the moment, the poorest 1/5th of our society pays a greater percentage of their income in tax than the wealthiest 1/5th, this is a national disgrace in my opinion. We need a serious reform of our tax system, not minor adjustments that favour the wealthy. We can not make it out of this recession without restoring fairness to the heart of our politics and our economy and that is what the Liberal Democrats are determined to do".

Kindest Regards

Kristian Chapman
