Reeves will ask rich to pay more tax
Rachel Reeves has signalled the better off will be forced to “contribute more” as she prepares to raise taxes at the Budget.
Treasury sources have said that the Chancellor will not cut spending on public services or significantly increase borrowing, as she looks to plug a £20-30 billion black hole in the public finances.
It will leave her with no option but to substantially increase taxes.
There will be numerous responses which are far less polite than "goodbye" but behind them is a feature of the ideology which controls Rachel Reeves as a politician.
One reason why people such as our pretend Chancellor are ideologues is that a popular ideology allows them to be assertive without being smart. Keir Starmer's absurd Cabinet brings this out too well for comfort.
