MOSCOW, October 1 (RIA Novosti) - As the Conservative Party Conference comes to an end in Birmingham, UK Prime Minister David Cameron Wednesday promises tax cuts if the party wins the next general elections in 2015.
"If you work hard, we will cut your taxes," Cameron was quoted saying in the Conservative Party's press release.
"No income tax until you earn £10,000 a year and from next April, £10,500 a year," he added.
The Conservative party also promises to raise tax free personal allowance from £10,500 to £12,500 (about $17,000 to $20,244). Cameron also said that the Conservative government would adjust the 40 percent tax rate applied to earnings starting at £41,900 ($67820) to £50,000 ($80,930) as the threshold.
"Put another way – if our economic plan for the past four years has been about our country and saving it from economic ruin our plan for the next five years will be about you, and your family and helping you get on," Cameron asserted in his Conservative Party Conference speech.
In his speech, Cameron emphasized that his priority however, was to cut the deficit and slammed Ed Miliband of the Labor party for not mentioning the deficit.
"He [Ed Miliband] spoke for over an hour, but didn't mention the deficit once. He said he 'forgot' to mention it," Cameron said.
"Ed, people forget their car keys, school kids sometimes forget their homework but if you want to be Prime Minister of this country, you cannot forget the biggest challenge [the deficit] we face," he added.
Cameron also touched on other issues as the threat of the Islamic State militant group occupying vast territories in Iraq and the British jihadists who travel to join the group.
"You [British Jihadists] are an enemy of the UK and should expect to be treated such," he said adding that anyone trying to travel to Syria or Iraq (to join the group) would be stopped.
Another concern, with personal value to Cameron's wife, Samantha Cameron, was protecting the National Health System (NHS) budget from spending cuts.
"I am someone who has relied on the NHS, whose family knows more than most how important it is," Cameron stated. "Who knows what it's like to go to hospital night after night with a child in your arms knowing that when you get there, you have people who will care for that child and love that child, like their own..."
