Tax Payers Alliance

Tax Payers Alliance

The Taxpayers' Alliance are recommending cuts to pensioner’s benefits. 

Many of those hit by a cut to the winter fuel allowance might "not be around" at the next election, said Alex Wild of the Taxpayers' Alliance.

And others would forget which party had done it, he added.

At the group's meeting at the Conservative conference in Manchester Mr Wild said the Tories could not wait until a year before the next election to make the necessary cuts to the winter fuel allowance, free bus passes, the Christmas bonus and other pensioner benefits.

The Taxpayers Alliance have been described as a bunch of posh 'right wing' Conservatives, parading as an independent think tank. They have seemed to have forgotten that these benefits they want to abolished, have been paid for by hard working taxpayers all of their lives as opposed to the ‘Non-doms’ and other serial tax avoiders who can afford to live an Monaco, and may not need the Winter Fuel Allowance.
