If I were the Chancellor preparing my first Budget, I reckon I'd probably bother to check what my party's manifesto pledges allowed me to do

at least they reversed the decision and admitted a mistake. Shows character.

The same Treasury staff who "leaked" the WTO consequences that David Davis disowned to the Brexit committee?

are you self employed? Is it fair that you pay lower NI then everyone else?

Is it true that all the people who were in uproar over the rise in self employed NI are the same ones in uproar now it's reversed.

Maybe they should have put the main manifesto pledges on an 8 foot stone and stood in in the Downing Street Rose Garden

All too believable, unfortunately. They've already broken the promise to allow existing pensioners to access their funds.

What's extraordinary is that no MP (apparently) pointed out that the Tax Lock Bill 2015 did not fulfill the manifesto pledge.

Indeed. An embarrassing u-turn.

He only did it in fear of charge of manifesto contradiction. I'm all for solicitors and accountants paying more.
-
Yes, the policy wasn't the issue but the issue of the manifesto was.
-
It was a good call. A ridiculous over-reaction, the working class hysterical self employed paying a little more NI.
-
Although I could understand the arguments against the rise, I felt, on balance, the rise was fair and just.
-
I know a white van man, he mostly gets paid in cash and doesn't declare it. Same for all self employed.

They get major sly deductions while the plebs defending them pay full NI.
