Lord Kirkhope of Harrogate (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 14 July 2025

Debate

Tax on Imports under £135

Contribution

My Lords, this imprecision is not helping. In answer to my noble friend Lord Bridges and the noble Lord, Lord Sikka, there was an attempt by the Minister to indicate what modest incomes were. However, equally confusing and rather upsetting is the Government’s inability to define what exactly they mean when they talk about “wealthy people”. Can he be a little more precise and helpful to us?
