TORY election plans for Wales were condemned by Welsh Labour today as a manifesto to cut services — and for showing no understanding of the country’s tax laws.
The Conservatives have pledged to cut income tax if they deliver 65,000 new jobs.
A Labour Party spokesperson said: “The Welsh Tories income tax policy is a complete mess and a threat to our NHS.
“Maybe Welsh Tories do not understand how Welsh taxes work. Even if they hit their promised jobs target — which is not backed by any detail — it does not mean there is an extra £220 million to fund this tax cut. They have linked more jobs with a tax cut without doing any homework.”
