Income tax (charge)

Debate between Torsten Bell and Graeme Downie

Thursday 31st October 2024 Commons Chamber

[Graeme Downie (Dunfermline and Dollar) (Lab)]

The right hon. Member was keen to quote the IFS earlier. Does he also agree with the IFS that

“it was not credible for Jeremy Hunt to claim that planned departmental spending limits would hold”

and there was

“no world in which 2 per cent rises would have happened and been sustained”?

[Torsten Bell (Swansea West) (Lab)]

Hear, hear.
