New Labour, Wealth & Health Inequalities Tasks 1: Make notes on ‘Low Taxation But More Indirect Taxes’. (pg 30). 2: Think back to our discussion on Fri 2 nd Sept. Why might some people say that New Labour’s approach to taxation may be unfair? Think of at least two reasons. 3: John MacTaggart writes: “no-one, after-all, likes paying tax.” Consider this statement. Do you agree? If so, can you imagine a scenario where people would not mind paying taxes, or even welcome paying taxes? 4: Targetting Benefits (pg 30 – 31). Why did New Labour prefer means- tested benefits to universal benefits? 5: Explain who has benefitted and who may not have benefitted from New Labour’s approach. 6: Why was the New Labour government so keen to reform Incapacity Benefit?

HOMEWORK – DUE MONDAY 26 TH SEPTEMBER Research a coalition government policy that either; a) changes or b) replaces one of New Labour’s approaches to taxation and/or the benefits system. You should explain what the policy is, what it aims to do, who it is aimed at, and two opposing views about the policy. You should include references saying where you found out about the policy.

TIP 1: Look at policies aimed at parents (eg Child Benefit), welfare (eg ‘welfare to work’ schemes’), policies aimed at the unemployed (eg Jobseeker’s Allowance) or any other relevant area of wealth inequality. TIP 2: Useful Sources: Internet Sources *BBC website (including iplayer for up-to-date news and current affairs); *On-line newspapers such as The Guardian, Telegraph or Observer; *4oD documentaries section (particularly Dipatches). Print Sources * Your textbook, for good details about New Labour policies and approaches. * Quality newspapers (eg, not tabloids). * Current affairs books or journals.

7: Think about the basic principles of the welfare state. To what extent do you think the welfare state looks after people “from the cradle to the grave”? 8: Take the heading “Reasons for Long Term Unemployment.” Using the interview with David Coyne, make a list of all of the complex and intertwining factors that can lead to long-term unemployment. 9: The New Individualism (use pages 34 and 35 ONLY): Give a detailed account of the ways in which individualist thinking “has not been abandoned. It is just being updated.”
