Stop rise in taxation for self employed workers

No rises in VAT or national insurance rates.
Today, that promise has been broken.
We do not have the security of a cheque at the end of the month, no holiday or sick pay & due to these insecurites often struggle make ends meet.

If the Chancellor really wanted to make this a society for all, he could chase the millionaire tax avoiders or the companies such as Parcelforce who are using and abusing self employed people.
