Gideon Amos

Liberal Democrat — Taunton and Wellington

Speaking in the House of Commons on 28 October 2025

Debate

Stamp Duty Land Tax

Contribution

I would point my constituents to the comments made by Lucian Cook, the head of research at Savills, who has said that the proposed SDLT giveaway would simply pass straight into house prices. It would have very little, if any, effect on people’s ability to buy homes, whether they are downsizing or not.
