Liberal Democrat — Richmond Park

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 November 2025

Debate

Taxes

Contribution

Does my hon. Friend agree that interest rates shot up in the way he has just described as a direct result of that mini-Budget three years ago, and that that is precisely why the taxpayer is now paying such large interest rate payments to the banks? Is it not therefore right that the Conservative party should get behind our plan to tax the banks, to reclaim some of that money for the taxpayer?
