Sir Keir Starmer remains committed to not raising taxes on working people, as outlined in Labour's manifesto, despite pressures from outgoing Conservative leader Rishi Sunak.
Chancellor Rachel Reeves has indicated the possibility of altering borrowing rules to facilitate greater investment in infrastructure, acknowledging a 22bn 'black hole' left by the Conservatives.
Starmer's refusal to confirm his stance on employer national insurance contributions raises questions about Labour's tax policy, particularly in light of the upcoming budget on October 30.
Sunak's scrutiny of Starmer's plans points to potential future tax increases, as he expresses doubt over Labour's commitment to its manifesto pledges amidst shifting economic circumstances.
