TV actors star in Don’t Judge My Family video

By Alex Smith / @alexsmith1982

A film criticising the Conservative Party’s married tax proposals was released this week. The film features TV actors Neil Pearson and Michelle Collins together with members of the public, widows and single parents saying ‘Don’t Judge My Family’.

This week Conservative marriage tax plans have been condemned by the chairs of the Widowed and Young Foundation, the National Association of Widows, the founder of the Merry Widows Forum and over seventy other widows and widowers from across the country.

Alex is the founder and CEO of The Cares Family. He was editor and first director of LabourList in 2009-2010, during which time he established the site as the number one Labour blog, and later an aide to Ed Miliband.
