United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 9 May 2026
We ask the Government to abolish Section 24 finance cost restrictions for private individual landlords and apply the same tax treatment and mortgage interest deductibility rules that currently apply to limited companies and corporate landlords. Following substantial interest rate rises, many private individual landlords are effectively being taxed on their gross rental income rather than genuine profit, despite often owning only one or two rental properties. We further believe that this unequal taxation regime is contributing to smaller landlords leaving the market, reducing housing supply and increasing rents within the private rented sector.

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 16 April 2026
We call on the Government to ensure that any per-mile road pricing system does not result in double taxation for plug-in hybrid (PHEV) drivers. PHEVs were promoted as a lower-emission technology. Applying a flat per-mile charge alongside existing fuel duty risks unfairly penalising these drivers. On a 300-mile journey in a PHEV with a 40-mile electric range, around 260 miles are powered by petrol. These petrol miles include fuel duty and VAT within the cost of fuel. A PHEV would pay £17.00 inc 1.5p and fuel duty at current rates A fully electric vehicle travelling the same 300 miles would pay £9.00 road charge, as no fuel duty applies. This creates a clear imbalance, where PHEV drivers pay more for the same road use.

We want the Government to review income tax thresholds and automatically index the Personal Allowance and tax bands to inflation to prevent fiscal drag. The Personal Allowance has been frozen at £12,570 since 2021 despite rising inflation. As wages increase to match living costs, more people are pushed into higher tax bands and pay more tax without real income growth. This fiscal drag acts as a hidden tax rise. We call on the Government to index income tax thresholds to inflation and review marginal rate cliffs to ensure fairness and transparency.
