Kickstart Britain
LFG's plan for the next government's first 30 days to kickstart economic growth.
END DECLINE. SAVE BRITAIN.
Mainstream ideas and parties have failed the British people. Their indecision and incompetence has led to the lives of millions getting worse every day.
Growth is illegal. Living standards are falling. Wages are stagnant. Large swathes of crime have become legal.
We have a plan to kickstart economic growth.
Today we’re releasing our first three policies:
Back British Creators. The Government is attempting to force social media companies to “privilege” content from big established companies like the BBC over those produced by independent content creators. Effective censorship like this stops jobs, money, and personal growth. To support new, growing creators, the Government must immediately abandon all attempts.
Quangos aren’t forever. Unelected bodies are blocking growth. They must have an expiry date and be renewed every 5 years by the Government. Those that deliver government policy should be folded back into the department; independent regulators would need reconfirmation by parliament; and other state bodies like the NAO could stay independent in perpetuity. To achieve this, the Government must pass primary legislation that explicitly places an expiry date on arms-length bodies in the UK.
Axe the tax trap on working parents. Parents are being punished simply for having children. A tax trap between £60,000-£80,000 means parents are facing an effective tax rate of over 50%. To give parents their pay rise back, the Government must change the High Income Child Benefit Charge so that 1% is clawed back every £400, not £200. This should be done through a Finance Bill amendment to Chapter 8 of Part 10 of Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003.
Every week for the next three months, we’ll be releasing policies that can deliver the economic growth the British people so desperately needs.
