Cameron hints at possible tax cuts under the Tories
DAVID Cameron hinted yesterday at the possibility of tax cuts under a Conservative government, saying that it was right for those who "put their backs into the British economy" to be rewarded.
Mr Cameron's comments came amid continuing pressure from within his party for more specific promises on tax than his often-repeated mantra that he will "share the proceeds of growth" between public services and tax cuts.
Mr Cameron said his approach of sharing the proceeds of growth would mean the state taking a smaller share of national income in tax over the course of an economic cycle.
He also challenged the Labour Party over the position of Gordon Brown, the Prime Minister, urging them: "Either back the guy or sack the guy."
