LabourList readers back Income tax transparency idea

Recently we’ve been running a number of posts based around the theme “What’s Labour about when there’s no money left?“. That’s a debate that will continue at the Fabian New Year conference on Saturday, when a “Dragon’s Den” will be hearing a range of ideas that Labour could adopt without spending any money.

Yesterday we put four of the best ideas to a vote of LabourList readers. The most popular idea was “opening up the income tax system” – proposed by (Lord) Alf Dubbs. Alf will be presenting his idea to the Dragons on Saturday.

The winner of two free tickets for the conference was Ellie Robinson. Thanks to everyone who voted, sent in suggestions and left comments.

See some of you on Saturday…
