Excluding housing and university fees, because that’s magic money
2 comments

Fees were a problem back in 1999 but they creased to be an issue in 2005 when they were added to income contingent repayments. Other tax rates or indeed disposable income isn’t included in that measure

CPIH figure includes houses, under that £20 today was £10 in 1990, so even lower.

I thought we chopped down all the magic money trees?
The magic money tree only applies if you are buddies with members of the cabinet, silly.
