Rachel Reeves has put taxes *up*, and ended up actually raising *less* money.
How has she managed that?!
It turns out that when you punish people for taking risks, hiring people, or working hard, they're less likely to do those things. Who could have guessed?
Today is Tax Freedom Day!
Up until June 5th, every penny the average Brit earned went straight to the taxman. From today (June 6th), you are finally earning for yourself!
Under our improved methodology, this is the latest Tax Freedom Day ever recorded. 👇

Been many sliding doors moments under ENIC, but this might be the worst of all.
Negotiated with Raya for months, bottled paying the fee, haggled over pennies, then watched him join our biggest rivals 🙄
Went cheap with Vicario, they won the title, we've almost got relegated 👍
What a cruel policy this is, punishing children for the choices their parents made about where to get them educated. @UKLabour really is the nasty party.
Out of all the cabinet Phillipson is the most spiteful IMO.
Going after schoolchildren midway through the term and taxing education was nothing but damn right nasty.
The new Danish government is cutting the corporation tax rate from 22% to 19% over three years, and eliminating income tax bands for the highest earners.
“It is crucial that Denmark remains competitive,” Prime Minister Frederiksen said.
It's sad that the British government does not have a similar attitude.
This issue isn’t going away and I won’t stop calling out this Government’s war on education. 30,000 fewer pupils are in private schools since Labour's VAT on fees, pricing families out and causing real anxiety for parents.
Adding VAT onto private school fees looks to be one of the worst education policy decisions of recent decades. Forced closure of good schools, disrupted children's education, and likely to cost taxpayers more than will ever be recuperated. Terrible.
🤯UNBELIEVABLE!
Not content with her Jobs Tax, more red tape and sky-high energy bills, Rachel Reeves wants to introduce a ‘nice pub tax’.
Pubs in ‘attractive locations’ and even community pubs are in the firing line.
It will be last orders for so many of our beloved pubs. 👎
Tax in the UK is the highest it’s been since 1945. That’s well understood – but another trend has been largely missed: the number of taxes in the UK is at its highest since the end of the Napoleonic Wars.
Energy bills are rising again. Labour will blame Iran, but you’re paying more because of Ed Miliband’s net zero taxes and refusal to drill our own oil and gas.
Our Cheap Power Plan would cut bills by 20% by scrapping the green taxes, scrapping VAT and drilling in the North Sea.
Finally someone! @Matt_Law_DT good article. The quicker the Lewis family/ENIC sells, the better for the CLUB @SpursOfficial enough is enough. You had a good long ride now.
