Yes, that's exactly what I reckon too. It's just too galling and obvious a handout to the very very wealthiest, such a blatant headline, I don't think the tories are actually that dumb. Keeping the 50% rate will be paraded around as evidence of the coalition taxing the wealthy, whereas the reality is the opposite. The 50% rate is not even a minor fart in the gale of the torydem's VAT increase, for example.
