LABOUR’S £100 BILLION POUND TAX BETRAYAL
This week Andy Burnham will become Prime Minister. So, what’s he planning?
Reform UK’s research reveals Burnham has proposed, supported or refused to rule out at least ten taxes over the course of his political career.
On a central estimate, they amount to £38 billion a year of new or increased taxes.
These include a death tax on family homes, a graduate tax on young people getting their first pay cheque, a £14 billion raid on savings and investment, and new taxes on everything from your parking space at work to your weekend away.
Combined with the £66 billion of tax rises already imposed by Rachel Reeves, Labour could hit more than £100 billion in higher taxes by the next election.
That amounts to
£3,450
per family.
If you can’t remember voting for that, it’s because you didn’t.
Reform UK is calling on Andy Burnham to rule out, specifically and by name, each of the 10 measures he has previously supported:
A death tax: 10% levy on estates

A graduate tax

If Andy Burnham decides he wants to raise taxes
despite Labour promising otherwise
he should call a
General Election Now
and see what the British people think.
