Ahead of next week's budget announcement, Oxfam Cymru have warned a reduction in the 50p tax rate would "disproportionately harm the poorest people in Wales."

The charity believe if Chancellor George Osborne offers a tax break to higher earners at the same time as cutting working tax credits this will result in a more divided Britain, hitting poor communities in Wales particularly hard. But the South Wales Chamber of Commerce say they believe any reduction tot he 50p rate will have very little impact on the country.
