We @libdems.org.uk would put £270 back in your pocket, by:
🍻 Cutting VAT for hospitality, attractions and accommodation
💡Slashing household energy bills
We’d fund this through a windfall tax on excess profits made by big banks, rather than higher taxes for struggling families and businesses.

A damning indictment of Labour’s decisions.
From the jobs tax to business rates bills, the economy is barely spluttering along.
The Government must take up our plans to save our high streets, put money back in the pockets of families, and fix our broken relationship with Europe.

This wasn’t pitch rolling, it was pointless. The Budget will be a bitter pill to swallow as the Government seems to have run out of excuses.
We can’t keep punishing households, high streets and hospices whilst big banks and social media giants don't pay their fair share.

We just stopped Nigel Farage’s plan to drag Britain out of the ECHR and tear up people’s rights. Farage wanted to scrap Churchill’s legacy and bring us closer to Trump's America.

We won’t stand for it. The Liberal Democrats will not let allow Trump’s America to become Farage’s Britain.

If the Government is planning to bring forward fair reforms asking the super-wealthy to pay their fair share of tax then we will look at them closely, but this simply cannot become a jobs tax 2.0 for self-employed people in the squeezed middle.

At St Andrews, where he was Chancellor for almost twenty years, he gave so much to generations of students. Wendy Chamberlain and I were proud to honour his legacy in the place he loved.
