The wisdom of Nick Clegg

Posted on

Nick Clegg espouses two ideas from this blog on the leader’s debate.

The first is an extra 10% tax on banks.

The second is to make sure this is paid irrespective of the losses they have incurred in the past.

He’s right.

And in contrast Cameron wants to reduce their tax rate.

How can Cameron think he will manage the economy if he can’t even get this right?
