Richard Tice rows back on Reform’s £90bn tax cut pledge

  • Richard Tice, Reform party leader, has revised the party’s £90 billion tax cut pledge made for shortly after a general election win.
  • This adjustment follows concerns that the cuts must be funded by spending reductions and market conditions, which Tice emphasized in a Telegraph interview.
  • Reform’s manifesto proposes increasing the initial income tax threshold to £20,000, eliminating inheritance tax on estates valued below £2 million, removing VAT from energy bills, and reducing corporation tax to 20%.
  • The deputy leader said, “These are the tax cuts I want to get to,” while the Institute for Fiscal Studies warned the party underestimates costs significantly.
  • Reform insists tax cuts await proven savings, reflecting a cautious approach despite recent local election successes and gains in opinion polls.
