Socialdemokratiet: There is opposition to the idea of a red-blue government from the local leaders of the party; The party proposed to raise the monthly employment deduction to 8.300 DKK for everyone besides single parents, who can get an employment deduction of up to 11.400 DKK. The idea will reduce tax on work income by 4 billion DKK. Where do they plan to get the money? Reduce the spending on job centers by 3 billion DKK and 1 billion DKK from unused funds.
If it becomes reality, the spending reduction of 3 billion DKK at the job centers can mean layoffs (job consultants fired) and no more offers for upskilling (paid courses by Jobcentre). The current budget for the Jobcenters is 12 billion DKK/year.
SF: The party is against the idea of reducing the tax on work, when the welfare system is so heavily underfunded.
Enhedslisten: The party is against the idea of reducing the tax on work, as it will not help unemployed people, pensioners and sick people.
