Tax cut, Renzi: “Meloni lies. He also argues with mathematics”

Matthew Renzi accuses the prime minister Giorgia Meloni to lie about the extent of the tax cut contained in the package of measures approved by the Council of Ministers today, May 1st.

“Premier Meloni cuts 4 billion in taxes on labor and says that this is the most important tax cut in recent decades. False! To give examples: the 80 euros were worth 10 billion a year, the cancellation of the Imu first home 4 billion, IRAP labor cost 6 billion. I’ll save you everything else from IRES to Industry 4.0 to taxes for the agricultural world. Meloni cuts 4 billion one-off and rejoices, we have silently cut 25 billion a year. Giorgia Meloni he didn’t just argue with politics: he first of all argued with mathematics. Happy May Day”. Thus the leader of Italia Viva, on Twitter.

“We have freed up a 4 billion euro treasury, thanks to the courage of some measures we had taken forward, I am thinking of the superbonus and the excise tax issue, and today we are allocating the entire amount of that treasure trove to the most important labor tax cut in recent decades “, claims the Prime Minister in the video she posted on social media to detail the Labor decree. “We cut the contribution wedge by 4 points and this cut adds up to what we had already done in the previous budget law: so today, and until the end of the year, we have a cut of 6 percentage points for those with incomes up to 35,000 euros and even 7 points for incomes up to 25,000 euros. It is a choice of which I am deeply proud”, he adds.

“In the last ten years, Renzi has cut taxes by twenty billion, Draghi by ten. She by three, making one of the smallest cuts in recent decades. Do you know why politics has lost credibility? Because it is allowed to use the words totally f**k”. The economic manager of Italia viva, Luigi Marattin, writes it on Twitter.
