Counting the cost of a vote for our MP
DO the people of Leigh know that their MP Andy Burnham wants to reintroduce plans for a death tax on every person, no matter how much their estate is worth?
According to figures published in the past week that’s 15 per cent of your house, your car, your clothes, fishing tackle, wedding ring etc.
This is the same Andy Burnham who wanted to charge us £300 each for a identity card.
Please remember this at the next elections.
