Labour — Dartford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 3 March 2025

Debate

Finance Bill

Contribution

When the last Government left office, taxes were at their highest level for 70 years. Thresholds have been frozen, bringing more workers into higher tax rates than was fair on them. The Labour Government are dedicated to trying to ensure that taxes are paid by those with the broadest shoulders and those best able to pay them.
