Rachel Reeves under pressure to ‘urgently rule out' tax hikes
The Conservatives are urging Chancellor Rachel Reeves to "urgently rule out" increasing share taxes in the upcoming autumn budget, following the leak of a memo from Angela Rayner suggesting a series of tax hikes. The Tories argue that leaving investors"in limbo" could harm the economy. The party claims that scrapping the £500 dividend allowance would pull an estimated 5.22 million more individuals into paying investment levies. This pressure on ministers comes after a document, reportedly sent by the Deputy Prime Minister to Ms Reeves, was leaked to the press. In the memo, Ms Rayner proposed removing the dividend allowance to generate approximately £325 million annually, as well as axing inheritance tax relief for AIM shares and increasing dividend tax rates, according to The Telegraph. Shadow chancellor Mel Stride commented: 'The Government need to urgently rule out these tax hikes on savers and investors before speculation causes further economic harm. ' Labour don't understand how business works and how to create growth. More taxes on investment, entrepreneurship and saving are the last thing our economy needs right now.' The Government's U-turns over welfare reform and winter fuel payments have left the Chancellor with a multibillion-pound black hole to fill, fuelling speculation that she will seek to raise revenue through tax hikes. The Tories claimed axing the dividend allowance would drag 'an estimated 5.22 million more people into paying dividend tax'. This figure appears to be based on an assumption that at least 8.82 million people in the UK hold shares that pay dividends. Some 3.6 million are already subject to dividend tax, according to data obtained by investment platform AJ Bell through a Freedom of Information request. The Chancellor last year said she would not be 'coming back with more borrowing or more taxes' after her first budget but has since refused to rule out raising specific levies, saying it would be 'irresponsible' to do so. A Labour Party spokesperson said: 'The Conservatives have some brass neck. They've still not apologised for the damage caused by the Liz Truss mini-Budget, nor the £22 billion black hole they left – which hammered firms and families across the country. 'Labour is doing more to support business than the Tories ever could. 'We've already delivered three historic trade deals and four interest rate cuts – to reduce costs and put money back in people's pockets.'

Chelsea in line for huge transfer windfall as Inter Milan battle Premier League clubs for ex-star who played two games
NOTTINGHAM Forest, Everton and Inter Milan are poised to join the battle to sign Ipswich star Omari Hutchinson. Forest, the Toffees and the Serie A giants are all weighing up whether to make a move after both Leipzig and Brentford lodged £35m bids last month. 4 Relegated Ipswich want more for their biggest asset and hope to generate an auction for Hutchinson. Brentford are tipped to return with an improved offer of £37.5m but are now likely to face even stiffer competition for the England Under-21 international. Hutchinson, 21, did not travel to France for the Tractor Boys' friendly against Auxerre last weekend because of uncertainty about his future. Boss Kieran McKenna said: 'Omari, with the speculation around his future at the moment, he didn't feel mentally in the right place to come for the game. 'It's a challenging situation for everyone. He's a player that we love and we support and we have empathy with, with the year that he's been through and this important moment in his career. 'We'll keep working and communicating on that situation as well and hopefully it'll be the best resolution for the club and for the player.' And a sale of Hutchinson by Ipswich could hand Chelsea a huge PSR boost after another summer spending spree. The England U21 winger played just twice for the Blues, but SunSport understands the West Londoners agreed a 25 per cent sell-on clause before he joined Ipswich. CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS 4 4 Hutchinson put himself in the shop window for a big money move last season as one of the few bright sparks in Ipswich's relegation campaign. He further proved his class and maturity with his performances in England U21's Euros-winning tournament. He featured in all six of the young Lions' matches at the tournament, and scored the second goal in their 3-2 victory over Germany in the final.
