Watching BBC News and being a key follower of the political party season, I am disgusted by the actions taken by the Conservative Government to slash child benefits for the higher tax payers from 2013.
Yes, they may be the "better off" members of the public but every parent I know admit that raising a child under any circumstance is very difficult. It takes a lot of dedication and the Government has to encourage and praise their hard work. A little bit of extra income will not effect the country's over-growing debt which is going on. Especially when the "higher tax" will bring the "better off" wages lower to a sum which is almost similar to the people who have lower tax. In my opinion, the tax rate here is far too high considering the average annual wage is less than £20,000.
The population is increasing, and increasing fast. In the last nine years, we have seen 2 million more births which is continuously adding to the UK population. It's a lot of babies, even though we're known as an ageing population. I am predicting that people who want to be parents for the first time have to put their family plans on hold and wait until it's too late. It discourages people to add to the population just because they cannot afford to raise a child.
One mum from Bristol who has young children was interviewed by BBC after the Chancellor, George Osbourne announced the plans. She will not receive child benefits for her child as her husband receives less than £1,000 more than the required amount to receive the child support. She is also disappointed by George Osbourne's plans and now has decided not to go for family activities in the future as she has high-price bills to heat the house and cook meals etc to pay for.
A "benefit" is something which this Government doesn't seem to understand. It's a benefit. A small contribution which will help an individual. They're also cutting income support which is going to effect the disadvantaged. So who are Government benefiting with all of the cuts? Although cuts in some areas are necessary, they're hitting the people of Britain worse rather than the companies who get all the benefits such as the rich bankers with millions of pounds worth of bonuses. This will make more of them to move away from UK and go to places as far as Australia so they can benefit from their lower tax and better lifestyle at the same time.
This will cause even more problems for the Conservatives. They don't like illegal immigrants, we all know that - it was emphasised during the General Election. The immigrants don't like living in their countries due to lack of opportunities and simply, their dreams are to reside to Britain. And the UK are brilliant at advertising the best points of the British Isles. So it's bound to interest the foreigners to come and live in the UK. And the Tories can't stand it - don't ask me why. In my eyes, they're just taking the jobs the British public don't want and may I say, they're doing a really good job.
That's beside the point, benefits are beneficial and are here for the keeps and if the Tories are planning to scrap them, then they will have to face a decline in support and their faces will turn to Ed Miliband.
