Can't comprehend the reaction of some Blairites to this. Less than 4% of workers earn more than £80k a year, the bulk of whom vote Tory anyway. And they think it's a vote loser?
This is the problem. The media will spin it your way: labour crushes aspirations. Whereas the promise actually makes 95% of people better off than they'd be under the lib Dems. Its all about the spin. :(
Maybe Alastair Campbell wasn't such a cunt after all.

Anyone finding themselves suddenly drawn to the Tories?
