Tories back wealth redistribution via BBC News – Politics
In a surprise move that I never expected to see from the Conservative party, Oliver Letwin – who has recently been put in charge of overhauling party policy in the next eighteen months – has said that a future Conservative government should make wealth distribution one of its goals. This is in an interview in the Daily Telegraph no less – a paper whose readership generally sways towards backing the Tories and centre right policies.
I have to say I was actually hugely surprised by this move as well.
I have been extremely sceptical about the socalled Cameron revolution since he took over, but this really may be something.
However, I think I will hold back full judgement until I hear some of their actual policies to redistribute wealth.
