    June 27, 2025

    Kemi Badenoch has said she would only support Labour’s welfare bill if the government pledges not to raise taxes further at the next budget.

  • Nigel Farage reveals one-off £250,000 non-dom payment plan

    June 23, 2025

    Nigel Farage has announced a £250,000 one-off “landing fee” for a ‘Britannia Card’ for non-doms to qualify for tax exemptions, in a push to stem the growing exodus of high net worth individuals from the UK.
