I do wish politicians would stop going on about "working families" and "hard-earned" money.

There are many single working people, as well as families.
And "hard-earned" sounds as if they're all working down coalmines.
And taxation affects retired people, too - not only current workers.

And - grrr!

Is below 50 grand. So is it fair that the average worker is going to be so very much worse off than those who don’t.
