Richard Crawford, Green

Green PPC (Gravesham),
Richard Crawford's reply

Do you agree in principle with the aforementioned policy?*
*no commitment to act upon the policy

Answer - "In the Green Party, we're pledging to the 50% rate over £100,000. (& abolishing the Upper Earnings Limit on National Insurance, so that higher earnings (over £43,875) should pay at 11%, rather than 1%, as it is now. We're pledging to reintroduce the 10% tax band (up to £13,500), rather than raising the tax free allowance to £10,000".

In a generic sense, do you believe that the rich should pay more tax and the poor should pay less tax?

Answer - "Yes".

Do you pledge to campaign for income tax reform at the next parliament?*
*not necessarily as specified with the above policy

Answer - "Yes".
