自民党・小泉進次郎氏が「消費税15％待った無し」と発言?
Original review summary
The review says the video was misleadingly edited from footage of Koizumi’s June 1, 2017, press conference. It reports that the original footage does not show him making the claimed statement; in context, he said consumption tax increases were not a realistic option for funding child-related measures.[S1]
