Labour promises stamp duty reprieve for first-time buyers on homes worth up to £300,000

Ed Miliband, brittiska Labour Party, förklarade i helgen att en Labourregering vill att förstagångsköpare får en skattereduktion på fastigheter värda upp till upp till £ 300,000. Från konservativa Tory svarade Eric Pickels med att twittra ett citat av Assar Lindbeck, IFN och Stockholms universitet: "Rent control appears to be the most efficient technique presently known to destroy a city except for bombing." Citatet har återgivits i ett stort antal tidningar.
