8,000 more smoking deaths, 13,000 more children in poverty, massive cuts to public services looming.

Remember this, every terrible thing this government is doing is all to smash and grab enormous amounts of public money, that could be spent on services for everyone, and give it to landlords.

Nothing but sheer economic vandalism and greed from this government.

But Luxy gets a tax refund. Surely that make it all worth while?
