Message | Mr Speaker, We have changed our vote on the Nationalisation Bill, where other MPs rightly pointed out that it did not represent the LSP as a whole, however it does not mean that we oppose left-wing policies altogether. This tax increase, while hiding a larger scheme behind it, yes, was a beneficial step forwards for Luthori, and while it is true that the middle classes should not bear these costs, regretfully they must. |
