Summary

This would help with increasing rent, mortgages, Council tax, and Gas and Electric bills. Some families can’t afford to go back to work after children due to childcare costs wiping their whole income! We think that we are currently paying ridiculous amounts of tax, and that minimum wage isn't even enough to support an average family. We believe that this would lead to a massive increase on people willing to look for work, instead of people not wanting to, due to it being too expensive to now live.
