Our response to Andy Burnham's Labour Party Conference speech 💬 #TaxTheSuperRich

We welcome the Prime Minister's vision to bring hope back to our country and communities.
And we repeat our longstanding message: we're ready to play our part by paying our fair share, so Britain gets the investment it needs to make that vision a reality.
This country helped to build our success. So millionaires like us must be taxed more. It's our turn to step up first and help build a better future for everyone.

The editors of The Express are utterly reprehensible. Andy Burnham teared up when having the courage to pay tribute to his dad, just two weeks after he died, in front of thousands of people. And they use it to attack him. They are devoid of basic decency and humanity. Poisonous for our discourse.

Express: It's a crying shame for our nation.

I witnessed Pal Action supporters being arrested yesterday for holding signs and lying down. They were corralled in an area away from the ACC, so literally the only people who could see the signs without a major detour were the arresting police officers. Performative policing to the nth degree.

It’s impossible to read this about the police still wasting huge resources attempting to convict people for peacefully walking slowly and then begin to comprehend the craven police inaction over Tommo and his violent masked thugs. Can anyone explain it?

As noted elsewhere today, our media is lazily fixated on what it considers *real* jobs like oil and gas, manufacturing etc. The huge changes affecting vast sectors of the economy that don't fit this narrow band seem largely ignored.

Elements of this, such as fixing and guaranteeing a trial date in rape cases are welcome and overdue. But as I wrote when the last government floated this idea, I am yet to understand what “specialist courtrooms” will actually amount to. 🧵 www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Abolishing inheritance tax would be a mistake. There are better taxes to cut. Evidence that IHT significantly discourages saving is limited; there's stronger evidence of an effect the other way - large inheritances lead heirs to work less. And it's right we tax wealth.
