To be fair that is a shit interview. Balls started talking about percentage terms and then shifted to absolute terms and it is absolutely no surprise, and doesn't tell us anything, that someone earning lots more money will have a higher absolute benefit from a tax cut.
Couldn’t agree more - that wasn’t some gotcha moment, it was just two economically illiterate cunts talking at cross purposes. Reform’s manifesto isn’t hard to pull apart from a tax standpoint but it requires someone with a brain cell to do it.
Seen Farage get the raving hump?
