177. Tax matters

Ms Harman was disarmingly honest when she recently told a radio interviewer that she thinks people on middle incomes should contribute more through their taxes. So today I am looking at Labour’s various suggestions of who might pay more tax and how, inviting comment on these potential policies.

178. The Treasury wants to look at 5% cuts across Whitehall

The news yesterday that the Treasury is asking all departments to draw up a contingent cut of 5% each is an interesting development. It only applies to about half of public spending, but is still a serious sum. The stated purpose is to have cuts available should the need arise to offset other increases in spending.Readers will know that I advised the government to spend around £30 billion or 5% less in the first year of this Parliament than they decided to spend. Where they put spending up by 5.3% in their first year I suggested keeping to a freeze. Thereafter I accepted their profile of percentage cash increases, though I would have preferred a slower rate of increase in Year 2 and Year 3 and a faster one in Years 4 and 5. That would have saved us at least an additional £150 billion of borrowing over the five years compared to the government’s plan. I thought if we had done this there was a chance of getting through without the need for further cuts, and with a better prospect of a private sector led recovery.

179. Jesse Norman MP: The Government needs to make the case for Big Society principles once again |...

Governments are instinctively nervous about policy assessments, and it’s not hard to see why. Policy assessments are asymmetric: if positive, they often add little politically to what was already known; if negative, they crystallise failure, to the inevitable embarrassment of those involved.Yet such assessments are a vital tool of political reflection and improvement in government. So, then, what assessment should we give to the Big Society?

180. As even the Telegraph turns against immigration rules, has the Home Office finally gone too far?

Breadth of opposition to spousal visa rules suggests this could be another Gurkhas moment.The income benchmark on spousal visas was always different to other anti-immigration rules. Whenever you mentioned it to someone – even if they were instinctively quite hostile to immigration – they always expressed outrage. Probably because it's an anti-immigration rule which specifically targets Brits. Now even the Telegraph is turning against it, four years after it was introduced.Today's copy rails against the 18,000 British families torn apart by the £18,600 annual income requirement for non-European spouses of British citizens. This is a policy which has forced married couples to live apart, prevented Brits from returning home once they've lived overseas and forced children to grow up without their mother or father.

182. It's time we stood up to the vicious bullies of the 'caring' liberal Left – Telegraph...

Who are the most unpleasant people on the internet? Obviously with so much competition, it is, to paraphrase Dr Johnson, like arguing the toss between lice and fleas. Nonetheless, after the recent experiences of critic and author Philip Hensher – which I describe in more detail here – I’d suggest that disability rights activists are a strong contender.Hensher wrote a piece suggesting – not unreasonably given the state of our shrinking economy and the size of our debt – that maybe 2.4 cent of GDP is a bit much for Britain to spend on disability benefits (US, France, Germany, Italy, Spain all spend less) and that maybe not all these recipients of taxpayers' largesse were quite as deserving as others.For expressing this mildly argued and not-exactly-extreme viewpoint Hensher was vilified, threatened with death and all but hounded off the internet by a shrill mob of self-appointed disability rights activists. I doubt they speak for the majority in Britain; I doubt they even speak for the majority of the disabled, most of whom I'm sure are properly appalled that money which could go to the genuinely needy is instead being hijacked by scroungers and fakes.

187. Labour caused our problems with energy prices and social mobility. Now they want to make them worse

The BBC/Guardianista Left seems to have become fascinated by the idea that the unpleasant squeeze on family budgets as pay rises lag behind prices could be magicked away by arm-twisting, strong arming or requiring, by law, employers to raise wages. Sadly they have forgotten, and would like the rest of us to forget, that it was the Blair-Brown-Balls-Miliband gang who ran up on behalf of us all the huge debts which faced George Osborne when he came into office in 2010. The debts are still there, indeed they have increased, and so too has the interest on them. That is why wages are lagging behind prices.

189. Idiocies of the Left: Dissing Climate Realism | ConservativeChitChat.co.uk Blogs

Another of the dumb things I’ve noticed leftards do of late is dismiss Climate Realists (or “Climate Sceptics” as they diss them as) who post information showing the reality of climate change / global warming / Man-made global warming – because it was on a blog or a messageboard and not a scientific paper. Even though if they’d bothered to actually read the bloody thing they’d realise it was relaying information from scientific papers calling their beloved climate change religion a load of crap based on bad science out into the mainstream and in a digestible format for people who might not otherwise know where to find or even tackle reading such things.

190. Deliberate, defamatory lies from the Mail on Sunday | Roger Helmer MEP

On June 1st, the Mail on Sunday published what purported to be a report on my interview with their Political Editor Simon Walters.In fact, the piece bore little or no relation to our interview, and appears to be simply a pre-cooked hatchet job, packed with deliberate and defamatory lies. I have written to Mr. Walters in the following terms.

192. An excellent exam answer from Michael Gove - Telegraph

Universities are best placed to design A-level courses and examinations.More than half of university lecturers are being forced to provide “additional support classes” to improve the basic academic skills of new undergraduates. According to a study by the Cambridge Assessment examination board, students are struggling to write essays; to use correct spelling, punctuation and grammar; to study by themselves; to carry out research; and to frame arguments. Yet at the same time, A-level results have never been better: average scores have increased by almost a quarter over the past 15 years, with record numbers of A grades.The gulf between what an exam system should be doing and what it actually does could hardly be more starkly exposed. Thanks to decades of grade inflation and an all-must–have–prizes mindset, we have a thoroughly discredited public examination system.
