Tax breaks for married couples - fair?

[emc]

I don't think so - but that's maybe because I'm not married! Today the Conservatives have said that should they win power at the next election they will re-introduce tax breaks for married couples.

So....I'm looking to talk to single mums (you can have been married before) and families that choose to co-habit, rather than marry, who don't think it's fair that they won't get these benefits simply because they've chosen to not walk down the aisle.

It's for a morning TV show - pls PM me for more details

Many thanks!
