保守党领袖稍后将向保守党大会发表主旨演讲在保守党大会现场,影子司法大臣尼克·蒂莫西正在发言。他回顾了警方在禁止特拉维夫马卡比队球迷入场事件中的失职行为,并指出他已在议会对此提出批评。他认为,这一事件反映了警方更广泛的问题。他表示:“当我努力揭露事件真相时,越来越多关于我们许多城镇和城市的现实浮出水面——警界领导层已被多元文化主义意识形态严重侵蚀和腐化。”
Conservative leader will deliver her keynote speech to Tory conference later At the Tory conference, Nick Timothy, the shadow justice secretary, is speaking now. He is recalling the failings of the police over the Maccabi Tel Aviv fan ban, which he highlighted in parliament, and he claims this is symptomatic of wider failings with the police. He says: As I campaigned to expose the reality of what happened, more and more emerged about life in many of our towns and cities, about police leaders so compromised, so corrupted by the ideology of multiculturalism.
“他们向本应坚决对抗的人屈服,甚至包括许多本应被关进监狱的人。这是我们从不容忍的。”
They surrendered their operational independence to those they should have faced down, including many they should have locked up.
工党称之为“高价值地方税附加费”的家庭住宅税,由雷切尔·里夫斯在2025年预算案中宣布,计划于2028年4月实施。该税种将给英格兰受影响家庭的每年度地方税账单增加2500至7500英镑。即便是最低档的税额,也高于英格兰D级地方税的平均账单(今年为2392英镑),也就是说,仅这项附加费就超过了普通家庭为所有地方服务所支付的费用。
That is something we should never, ever tolerate. The Family Homes Tax, which Labour call a High Value Council Tax Surcharge, was announced by Rachel Reeves in her 2025 budget, and is due to start in April 2028. It will add between £2,500 and £7,500 a year to the council tax bill of every home in England affected. Even the lowest band costs more than the average Band D council tax bill in England, which stands at £2,392 this year, so the surcharge alone will cost more than a typical family pays for all its council services.
然而,近期有报道称,该税的起征点可能会进一步下调……保守党政府将彻底废除家庭住宅税;如果工党在选举前立法实施,保守党政府上台后也将立即废除它。家庭住宅税是对人们辛苦购置的住宅进行的不公平征税,是工党出于政治目的而实施的恶意税收。预计该税每年仅能带来4亿英镑的收入,而地方税系统每年带来的收入超过500亿英镑。这项税收在整体收入上几乎没有任何增益,却带来了巨大的复杂性。
However, there have been recent reports that the threshold could be lowered even further …A Conservative government will abolish the Family Homes Tax outright, and if Labour legislates before the election a Conservative government will repeal it. The Family Homes Tax is an unfair tax raid on the homes people have worked hard for. It is a purely political and spiteful tax raid by Labour. The tax is expected to raise just £400 million a year compared to the over £50 billion a year raised by the council tax system. It adds huge complexity for very little gain in terms of overall revenue.
确实,不是很多人会受到10万英镑育儿费政策的影响,但关键在于,所有受影响的人都聚集在大约100个议席中,其中40个议席是保守党需要从自由民主党手中夺得的,另有20个议席他们必须阻止自由民主党在下一次选举中赢得。
It’s true that not a lot of people are hit by the £100k childcare thing, but the thing is, all of the people who are live in about 100 seats, 40 of which the Tories need to win from the Liberal Democrats, 20 of them they have to prevent the Liberal Democrats winning next time.
似乎保守党终于开始关注选举地图了。这简直是愚蠢透了,这只会让有子女的富人夫妇受益!(指着地图)看看这些蓝色区域。他们有什么共同点?
Seems the Tories have finally looked at an electoral map This is stupid it only benefits rich couples with children” (Points at map) - look at the blue bits. What do they have in common?
是的,保守党在拥有已还清抵押贷款的退休者中表现最好,但在那之后要瞄准的下一个群体是高收入家庭,他们感觉(并非没有道理地)自己的税负比以往任何时候都重。他们已经注意到了这一点,并且对此并不满意。这是一个政治机会!
Yes Cons do best with pensioners who have paid off their mortgages but next group to target after that is high income families who feel, not without reason, that they are taxed more heavily than ever. They have noticed and aren’t happy about it. That’s a political opportunity!
