Liberal Democrats Support the Living Wage Campaign
Liberal Democrats in Government have worked hard to ensure that from next April the personal tax allowance will have risen to £10,000. This will take over 2.7m low earners out of tax altogether, and deliver a tax cut worth £700 per year to 24m low and middle earners. We want to go further, and raise the tax allowance to the point which means that no one on minimum wage has to pay income tax at all.

ALTER AT GLASGOW
For the Lib Dems' main annual conference this week, Glasgow will be a new venue for almost everyone. ALTER's fringe is on Saturday (14th) lunch-time - before most delegates will have got themselves orientated. However the timing and the format - a showing of the new video The Taxing Question of Land, with discussion afterwards led by Dr Vince Cable - means that a capacity audience of 150 is expected: there are only 3 other competing events in the conference centre over lunch (SECC / Leven).
