The IFS has published an interesting study-showing the effect on household incomes of different income levels and types as a result of manifesto commitments.

It is 24 pages on the IFS website-theTelegraph has publised some extracts-surprise surprise I can't find it on the BBC website.

Basically all households will be better off under Tory proposals-under Labour the poorest 30% will benefit, and the other 70% would lose out.

The Lib Dems are highly redistributive. The richest 10% of households would pay an extra £42.13 a week under their proposals.
