Call You and Yours with Julian Worricker. An opportunity to contribute your views to the programme. The 50p tax- is it helping or hindering economic growth? The top tax was imposed to raise £2.7 billion towards the deficit. The unions are planning to "fight tooth and nail" against any plans by the Coalition to scrap it saying it is only right that the rich should pay more. But George Osborne along with some economists say it deters enterprise and hard work. Mr Osborne has said that it is driving wealth creators out of Britain when they are needed to create jobs and boost growth. However people like Sir Stuart Rose, the ex boss of Marks and Spencer, have been speaking out in favour of the tax. Should these people be paying more tax or if you're a high earner, do you resent paying more? Email [email protected] or call 03700 100 444 (lines open at 10am). Producer Bernadette McConnell.
