TOPIC: "More Labour Taxes: IHT, CGT, NICs & VAT"
This is the third in our series of three short surveys responding to Members’ concerns about the impact of Labour’s Budget, with its £40bn hike in taxes. With the help of input from CPF Members, the Conservative Party and its MPs are campaigning hard on behalf of voters. Together, we all wait to see to what further tax rises Chancellor Reeves announces in her Spring Statement on 26 March. Perhaps she might even heed calls to amend her devastating inheritance tax (IHT) hike on the farming and business communities, her raising of Capital Gains Tax rates and employers’ National Insurance Contributions (NICs), and her imposition of VAT on private education.
Questions for discussion
- Have you made any changes to how you manage your income and savings as a result of Labour’s IHT policies?
- What relief do you think the Government should offer to encourage investment and to promote growth in the economy?
- What relief do you think the Government should offer to protect jobs?
- What relief do you think the Government should offer schools or parents?
- How do you think opportunity for all can best be provided for school-aged children, particularly for the most disadvantaged and those in schools or areas where poor performance has become entrenched?
- What single action do you think the Conservative Party should most be calling for and campaigning on at this time to make the greatest positive impact for voters across the country?
