We are the only party to lower taxes, refund the universal credit benefits gap and recover taxes from multinationals to fund our policies.

Full statement

We are the only party to write policies which tackle the root causes of poverty.

We would raise £40.5bn on a 5% turnover tax on multinationals Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, Starbucks, Shell etc, who send all their profits abroad to avoid paying Corporation Tax (it would be offset against Corporation Tax - so British companies would pay less).

We would raise £100bn pa by cutting QUANGOS (state funded bodies not run by the Government), which now cost £265bn per year, up from £90bn in 2010.

Save £37.9bn. We would stop public spending on ‘woke’ diversity schemes and partisan campaigns. Also remove some additional ‘social requirements’ for Government contracts which are costing £379bn2 per year, prioritising value for money. Slashing these by 10% would save about £37.9bn.
