Richard Burgon – 2021 Comments on More People Paying Income Tax

The comments made by Richard Burgon, the Labour MP for Leeds East, on 7 March 2021.

The Tories are to make an extra 1.3 million low paid workers start paying income tax.

We need a progressive tax system that targets the super-rich & the corporations making super-profits out of this crisis – not the low paid.

This Tory attack on the low paid must be opposed.
