Woking Liberal Democrats
The analysis reveals that:
The Inheritance Tax pledge would cost £6bn over the course of the next Parliament
It is aimed at the wealthiest 0.8% of estates in the UK
Every year, 3,000 of the wealthiest estates in the country would each benefit by almost £250,000 Commenting, Liberal Democrat Shadow Chancellor Vince Cable said:
"At a time when the gap between the richest and poorest is so great, it beggars belief that David Cameron wants to give the wealthiest estates a £6bn give away.
"The Tories are showing where their priorities really lie.
"This tax pledge is grossly unfair, only helps the wealthiest households and costs £6bn at a time when the public finances are in a perilous state.
"A vote for David Cameron is not one for fairness and change. It's a vote for more of the same.
"Only the Liberal Democrats are fully committed to creating a fair tax system. We are the only party that stands for fairness and not division."
