The Labour leader said he would avoid hikes ‘across the board’, having previously ruled out a wealth tax on the richest in society.
Sir Keir Starmer has promised not to raise income tax if he wins the next general election.
He told the Mirror: “We will do nothing to increase the burden on working people, whether it comes to tax or anything else.” The leadership was criticised last month by the Labour left for its decision to rule out any kind of wealth tax if it wins the next election. The plans echo those promised by Sir Tony Blair and Gordon Brown in the run-up to their 1997 landslide victory in 1997, when they pledged not to raise tax and to stick to Tory spending for the first two years.
