Newspapers praise Lib Dem successes

After month’s of sniping Britain’s newspapers are finally acknowledging that Lib Dem cabinet memebrs are punching above their weight and delivering on our election promises. Over the last week they have published several examples of how Lib Dems in government are pushing for a fairer tax system anf holding the fat-cats to account.

The Independent reports on how Nick Clegg is pushing for a budget to target the rich who so far have avoided the full effects of thegovernemnt’s defciit reduction plans.

Business secretary Vince Cable’s work to rein in bankers and control their unacceptable and self indulgent bonuses is reported in The Guardian.

Even the Tory Daily Telegraph is getting in on the act by reporting how David Cameron’s U-turn on the 50p tax rate for those earning over £150,000 a year is a victory for the Lib Dems (and for common sense).

Nick Clegg’s speech on a “John Lewis economy” can be found on the BBC website.
