The tax system is dysfunctional. It taxes workers more than the wealthy and it's riddled with inefficiencies. Tomorrow's Budget is a chance to fix that.

Closing tax loopholes isn't bad for growth - it boosts efficiency and protects demand. The chancellor can raise tens of billions by targeting unfair wealth, landlords, banks and gambling companies, without hurting GDP. @rachaelhenry.bsky.social for @lbc.co.uk π

This is a really good and important report. Some thoughts of my own...
Really value this feedback Antonia. Thank you. Itβs so important for us to clarify that we certainly donβt mean to be flip about jobs - we want the government to make sure these jobs are safe. I know how crucial decent jobs like these are. And how worrying the prospect of job losses is for people.
