General election 2024: Labour, Conservatives and Lib Dems set out their tax plans

The Conservatives, Labour and the Lib Dems have ruled out VAT hikes if either party wins the election.

Jeremy Hunt, the chancellor, said tax rises on products and services would "hammer families' finances", while shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves said Labour did not plan to raise tax, national insurance or VAT.

The Lib Dems also ruled out an increase.

They keep saying they won’t raise income tax or NI, yet both parties are confirming that the thresholds are frozen…..which is a tax rise. They’re just hoping enough people don’t understand.

Tax plans for England and Wales not Scotland or Northern Ireland.

[johnwealthy]

Not interested in tax or the economy. It is nothing compared to being safe on our streets.
What is the point in being better off financially but cannot walk the streets?

[edbaker]

[reflect]

All politicians must take a salary of 0£for 3 year😂

[ruthsmith]

People vote for what is going to benefit them personally, its human nature to do so. Those who have no financial worries and are really wealthy will want to keep it that way.

[jonassoviecki]
