:00:22. > :00:24.Jeremy Corbyn has accused the Conservatives of
:00:25. > :00:28.being in "complete chaos" over their tax policy.
:00:29. > :00:33.It comes after Theresa May avoided repeating comments made by a senior
:00:34. > :00:39.colleague, who told a newspaper there would be no income tax rises
:00:40. > :00:49.With more, our political correspondent, Iain Watson.
:00:50. > :00:53.Senior Conservatives, including the Defence Secretary and Foreign
:00:54. > :00:57.Secretary, have been sending out a strong message to their core voters.
:00:58. > :01:02.If you are worried that income tax might rise if we are elected, don't
:01:03. > :01:07.be full to bid is not our intention. The Conservative manifesto is
:01:08. > :01:13.nowhere near as explicit. Is it being rewritten? Our position on tax
:01:14. > :01:18.has not changed. We have set it out in the manifesto. What people will
:01:19. > :01:23.know when they've vote on Thursday, it is the Conservative Party who
:01:24. > :01:29.always has and is a low tax party. It is our intention to reduce taxes
:01:30. > :01:33.for ordinary working families. What does the Conservative manifesto say
:01:34. > :01:38.on tax question at the last election David Cameron promise not to
:01:39. > :01:43.increase income tax, national insurance or VAT. The 2017
:01:44. > :01:48.manifesto, only the Pledge on VAT remains. Promising to raise the
:01:49. > :01:55.level at which people pay the standard and higher amount of tax
:01:56. > :02:01.would also amount to a reduction. Theresa May could have tough Brexit
:02:02. > :02:05.talks ahead. There is no pledge not to increase income tax was that she
:02:06. > :02:09.and her colleagues are talking about tax today because they want to
:02:10. > :02:14.refocus attention in this campaign about what would happen if a Labour
:02:15. > :02:21.Chancellor moves into number 11 Downing Street. How are you doing?
:02:22. > :02:26.All right? I am now I have met you. Labour says the policy of making the
:02:27. > :02:29.better off and big businesses pay more is popular and the
:02:30. > :02:37.Conservatives lack clarity. There is chaos going on at the top of the
:02:38. > :02:41.Government full. What Labour is offering is no tax rises or
:02:42. > :02:44.insurance rises or VAT rises. An increase in corporation tax and some
:02:45. > :02:49.other tax increases at the top end to pay for social care. Theresa May
:02:50. > :02:55.could be finding it is more convivial to talk about tax and
:02:56. > :03:00.social careful that she and her colleagues are trying to stir the
:03:01. > :03:01.enthusiasm of traditional voters by saying instincts on taxation are the
:03:02. > :03:14.same. I can see why Jeremy Corbyn has said
:03:15. > :03:17.it is chaos. Michael Fallon was asked about the Conservative plans
:03:18. > :03:23.on income tax. He was indicating that people did not have to worry
:03:24. > :03:28.about tax rises. Boris Johnson said no plans to increase income tax. The
:03:29. > :03:35.Conservative manifesto is not that explicit. Opposition politicians are
:03:36. > :03:40.attacking it. What is happening is something slightly different. The
:03:41. > :03:45.voices are slightly discordant. The Conservative Party is trying to move
:03:46. > :03:49.the agenda back onto tax and safer territory in the last few days of
:03:50. > :03:53.the campaign for that it looks as if Theresa May had political credit to
:03:54. > :03:58.burn. Those polls are beginning too narrow for that now she has to give
:03:59. > :04:01.a clear signal to some conservative supporters, not to stay at home.
