  • London firms turn to hiring part time workers 

    July 9, 2025

    Businesses across London have turned to hiring more part-time workers ahead of a hot summer, with higher employment taxes prompting owners to offer more flexible work.  A new survey by the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) has found that the capital city’s economy was in recovery mode, with sales rising and cash flows [...]

  • Tax, tax and more tax. Does Rachel Reeves not know there’s another way?

    July 9, 2025

    Wealth taxes, pension raids, inheritance tax, does Labour really not know there's another option, asks John O'Connell.

  • Brutal bean-counters break the news: we’re utterly broke

    July 9, 2025

    These are difficult times for a news organisation that likes to think of itself as being on the glass-half-full side of life. Optimism is in short supply, and whatever reserves remained after 12 months of this government were snatched away from us yesterday by those bean-counting assassins at the Office for Budget Responsibility. Once a [...]

  • Brits back spending cuts over tax rises

    July 8, 2025

    Voters prefer spending cuts over tax rises, fresh polling has found, putting Chancellor Rachel Reeves at odds with an electorate that has become frustrated with her economic policies.  Rachel Reeves set spending pledges in stone in June when she confirmed Labour would boost day-to-day departmental and capital spending, with the NHS receiving a fresh three-year [...]

  • Rachel Reeves warned against piling on small business tax pain

    July 8, 2025

  • I’m one of Britain’s highest taxpayers – a wealth tax would be the last straw

    July 8, 2025

    Many patriotic high taxpayers like Steve Rigby accept that they work 50 per cent of their time for the government. A punitive wealth tax raiding assets that have already been taxed multiple times risks upending the social contract and driving businesses and jobs away The drumbeat for a wealth tax grows louder by the day, [...]

  • A wealth tax would be a disaster – and an admission of total failure

    July 8, 2025

    Why wouldn’t Downing Street rule out a wealth tax? It isn’t difficult, you just say “we will not introduce a wealth tax” and the show moves on. Instead, when asked about the growing clamour in Labour circles for new tax aimed squarely at the well-off, Downing Street’s spokesperson simply talked about the need for “the [...]

  • Downing Street flirts with wealth tax despite exodus fears 

    July 7, 2025

    The UK’s unprecedented exodus of wealthy people could be set to accelerate after the government opened the door to introducing a wealth tax, following calls for such a move by former Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock and a host of union leaders. Chancellor Rachel Reeves has all but conceded that taxes will have to rise [...]

  • State pension could face insolvency by 2036 despite tax hikes

    July 6, 2025

    Britain’s state pension could become financially unsustainable as early as 2036, despite recent increases in National Insurance contributions, according to new modelling by the Adam Smith Institute (ASI).  The think tank warned the Treasury is on course to spend more on welfare payouts than it receives in National Insurance receipts within just over a decade.
