In Principle

Well, of course, Anneliese Dodds is "in principle" in favour of freezing the personal tax allowance, but not of increasing corporation tax even on only the most profitable companies, and even then to a rate one point below the one in her own party's last General Election manifesto.

On what is officially the other side, there is Shaun Bailey, who appears not to understand the word "Universal" when he says that the kind of people whom alone he clearly thinks would receive it would only go and spend the Universal Basic Income on drugs. He is not known to take any such view of, for example, the super-deduction. But his position is at least implicitly also that of the Labour Party. Well, of course.
