Tax rises still on the cards for Burnham’s October Budget
Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestylePrime Minister Andy Burnham has refused to rule out tax rises in his upcoming October Budget during his first Prime Minister's Questions. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch accused Mr Burnham of being a people-pleaser and claimed markets are concerned about a spendthrift prime minister. Mr Burnham defended his record by highlighting previous tax cuts while committing to meet defence spending targets and scrap digital ID plans. Earlier, NatWest chair Sir Howard Davies warned that market jitters are rising and urged the government to drop the unaffordable pension triple lock to preserve economic credibility. Lord Jim O’Neill, an ally of Prime Minister Andy Burnham, said that the upcoming Budget must include tax increases or spending cuts to restore fiscal headroom.
