Starmer is well aware of what needs to be done. Here is what he said when voting for Johnson's UK-EU deal.
Services "a gaping hole", "lack of ambition", "Imperfect", "thin", "a basis to build on".
Share, to show the PM that you back him going further and faster to improve our deal with the EU. ~AA

Deep alignment between the EU and U.K. could close this hole and deliver GDP growth for both sides. This is worth listening to. Tell him he was right then and to do the right thing now 🎧👇
Wouldn't it be epic if the Ukraine and the UK joined the EU on the same day at some point in the future?

I don't think the biggest problem is that this relief exists. The total allowance is 60k. That's just mad.
You can also park 20k in your ISA, 9k in JISA per kids, 2.8k in JSIPP per kid.
A family of 4 can shelter just over 183k per year from tax.

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten.

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

This is such an obvious solution, that could dovetail with increasing relief for standard rate tax payers - we aren’t saving enough as a nation.
Ending higher rate tax relief on pension contributions would raise over £14bn a year.
Why isn’t this talked about more as something the CX should do? What am I missing?
