"Boris Johnson takes aim at Miliband and the mansion tax at Tory conference"
From today's Evening Standard
Mr Johnson made housing the center of his speech, in particular laying into Labour’s plans for a mansion tax on homes worth more than £2 million.
He said: “What is the real answer to our housing problem? To put a new tax on housing, hammering those who find themselves living in a property whose value inflates through no fault of their own, punishing those who have worked hard for years to pay their mortgages and those who hope to pass something on to their children?
[Actually, simple calculations, real life examples or a little logic shows property taxes do indeed make housing more affordable.]
Boris says it's not the fault of homeowners that property values have risen, then he says they are due the full capital gains increase from rising house prices because of their hard work!
Make up you mind, you thick twat. It can't be both can it?
