How is this fair?

I have colleagues and friends who are earning about £90,000 between them and get to keep it, the injustice of it all makes me sick. I think we should all stand together like the poll tax and show this government we will not tolerate such an unfair tax.

I work considerable hours doing a job I hate to provide for my family. I earn £45k to pay for childcare & run the house. My husband earns less than half my income. We work hard to meet the bills. Please stop this cut in child benefit. We need this income to fund my childrens clothes and birthdays. We don't have lavish lifestyles, holidays or sky tv. My mum has to look after my children 3 days per week because we can't afford the additional days in childcare.

My new partner has three children but will loose her child benefit due to my Salary. I will have no option but to take a pay cut. This is a just not fair. By the way my new partner is unskilled so it would be pointless her working just to pay for child minders.

A joint income family earning £25k each will take home £38,347 of their joint £50k and will get to keep child benefit.this is what's unfair.

It could do this through the tax credits system as that looks at combined incomes.

Doing the basic arithmetic shows this to be the case. If the Lib Dems go along with this then they have totally betrayed their voters. Tories didn't publish this in their manifesto = untrustworthy
