Tits say no to Labour

Money mone is in a huff about the 50p tax rate, its only 50p in every pound you earn over £150,000, not under, so she must be fully loaded, 50p for the super-rich indeed, right on.

Lingerie tycoon Michelle Mone has withdrawn her support for Labour in anger at its economic policies.

The Scottish boss of the Ultimo bra empire said the UK Government's recent moves risked alienating business and damaging the economy.

The 37-year-old branded the new 50p top rate of tax "a disgrace".

Leading Scots QC Paul McBride also announced he had abandoned lifelong support for Labour and joined the Conservatives.

Ms Mone, from Glasgow, told the Scottish Sunday Express newspaper: "I certainly don't mind paying more tax if the real benefits are being felt by schools, the health service, the elderly and businesses.

"But to just come and ask for more money to throw away is crazy."

She said it was not fair to punish all the UK's entrepreneurs who had often taken huge risks to make their companies a success.

"I used to be a Labour supporter but I'm not anymore," Ms Mone said.

"None of them have impressed me with their policies and actions, bringing the economy to its knees."

Mr McBride said Labour were now "mendacious and incompetent", relying on smears rather than policy.

His decision was welcomed by the Scottish Conservative leader Annabel Goldie who said it was a sign that the Tories were making "real progress" in Scotland.

A Scottish Labour spokesman said: "Labour have had to take tough decisions over the budget but they are the right ones to help get through the recession.

"Mr McBride and Ms Mone might be upset with the increase in tax for people earning over £150,000. However, the vast majority of Scots support that policy."

clearly you have no idea how the tax system works and how miss mone and her high earning friends evade paying what is due. If you did then you would know that this is a non issue and just another opportunity for that cow to get her face in the press. Well done, you fell for it.
