Easiest article that I have ever prepared. Who do you trust with £6 Billion? Companies in the UK or the Government, irrespective of colour.
How straightforward, a 1% increase in national insurance will create 1% less jobs, a 1% increase will create £6 Billion for the Government to spend on job seekers and disability benefits for the people who don't have jobs!!
The election should not be fought on whether to increase employers NI to 13.8% from 12.8% it should be about how much we cut employers NI to give employers more money to employ more staff and therefore reduce the state benefit costs.
Increases in NI verses efficiency savings is missing the point. It is simply a choice of whether the country spends its money on jobs or benefits.
