  Actually Barry we are not - the shambles that is the centre right New Labour Party may well want to increase the tax burden to fund an over stuffed benefits system but most on the real left do not.
  
  We want a system where taxation is fair and seen to be, where people feel good about paying tax, where tax is set at a level people do not try to avoid because it is not cost effective to do so, where there is real dignity in working, where those in work are genuinely supported by their employers and the state, where there are educational and training opportunities for young and old funded both by the state and by business, a system that creates real jobs for real people, that delivers free health care at the point of need irrespective of delivery mechanism, a state education system that is not hamstrung by politically motivated curricula or league tables but driven by the desire to educate and develop rounded useful citizens.
