El lapsus de Feijóo sobre el salario mínimo y el IRPF agita la campaña
El líder del PP acusa al Gobierno de “hacer un buen negocio” con la recaudación del salario mínimo, mientras que el Ejecutivo le recuerda que no aporta al IRPF. El candidato popular se compromete después a eximirlo de tributación
Alberto Núñez Feijóo has fully entered the debate on the minimum wage during his interview on Friday morning on Cadena SER. During the conversation, program host Aimar Bretos from Hoy por Hoy pointed out that the business lobby only supported an increase in the state of coalition's minimum wage (the one from 2020, the first of Yolanda Díaz).
Feijóo responded: "The government has done a good deal by raising the minimum wage. Who has taken the most money from workers has been the government. The government obliged businesses to raise wages, contributions, when that worker receives more salary many times surpassing the tax rate that was being paid and pays more contributions."
Bretos replied that the minimum wage remains exempt from income tax, to which Feijóo replied: "No, that was exempt before. In the last one there was a big discussion in Parliament that we voted to be exempt, but the government wanted it to be included."
