| Message | Also, first it is not the poorest in society. This does not even affect the poorest tax bracket. Welfare spending will do a lot more to help the poorest in society. I encourage a no vote of you really want to help the poor. |

| Message | We have to agree with the SLP on here. There doesn't really seem to be a change in bracket values, just tax rates. So we will vote No |
