Labour and the Laffer Curve

Tim Montgomerie is joined by Ian King, David Aaronovitch and Libby Purves.Ian King argues that Labour, led by Ed Miliband, has abandoned any pretence that they will form a constructive working relationship with business or wealth-creators with his pledge to reintroduce the 50p additional rate of income tax.David Aaronovitch says that parties strive to emphasise their differences where there is little - to create "blue water" for the sake of it.Libby Purves states - in no uncertain terms - that we should do away with the 'role' of First Ladies.
