Labour have admitted their unfunded energy promise will cost billions of pounds extra than they claimed. Without a plan to pay for it, Labour will have no choice but to hike up taxes on hardworking British people taking families back to square one.
- On the day of Sir Keir’s sixteenth relaunch, a shadow minister admitted one of Labour’s first ‘steps’ can only be achieved with around £20 billion of extra unfunded spending. Labour cannot say how they will pay for it because they don’t have a plan, meaning taxes will rise.
- Labour’s tax rises would take us back to square one. Only Rishi Sunak and the Conservatives will stick to the plan and take the long-term and difficult decisions with the economy which has seen inflation drop from 11.1 per cent to 3.2 per cent, the economy growing, taxes cut by £900 by the average worker.
