Friendly reminder to @RachelReevesMP (and colleagues) that if income tax, national insurance, value added tax, fuel duties, alcohol duties, tobacco duties, vehicle excise duties, environmental levies, insurance premium tax, ETS auction receipts, customs duties, air passenger duty, betting and gaming duties, the climate change levy, landfill tax, the aggregates levy, soft drinks industry levy, capital taxes, capital gains tax, stamp duties, inheritance tax, company taxes, corporation tax, the energy profits levy, apprenticeship levy, electricity generator levy, bank levy, bank surcharge, digital services tax, diverted profits tax, petroleum revenue tax, council tax, business rates, dividend tax, student loans tax, sugar tax, & supermarket carrier bags tax isn't enough to balance the budget....

Buckle up 🧵
