Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 February 2025

Debate

National Insurance Contributions (Secondary Class 1 Contributions) Bill

Contribution

I will not start a debate about what taxes might be raised. Of course, any tax increase is unpopular and they are all open to objections. I think I probably would have gone for fuel tax or VAT, and looked at air passenger duty—certainly an awful lot of others before, at this particular time, I would have looked at employers’ national insurance.
