the prime minister theresa may taking questions from journalists in dewsbury, west yorkshire. unsurprisingly, tax came up. probably the result of an interview that sir michael fallon, defence secretary, gave in the telegraph newspaper today, he said they will not put up tax for higher earners, but that seemed to go further than the party manifesto which makes no commitment on any tax rates, except saying broadly it is a party of low taxation. the prime minister was asked about it by our political correspondent in dewsbury and interestingly she said "we set it out in the manifesto". in a later a nswer to it out in the manifesto". in a later answer to itv, she said it was their firm intention to keep taxes low or ordinary working families, and reduced taxes on ordinary working families. it sounds like a rebuff for some michael's position, that the parties will not raise income tax. not that it will do that but it is not prepared to rule it out. i'm sure whoever is chancellor of the exchequer, if there is another conservative government after the 8th ofjune, will be grateful for
