Prime Minister announced a plan to reverse last month Their controversial cuts for winter fuel paymentSaying that he is eligible for more pensioner benefits.
There is also a growing hope that he will pick up a cap of two-children. Although nothing has been declared yet, the Prime Minister is said to be in favor of privately lifting the cap – but in the autumn, the child has refused to do anything until the poverty strategy is published.
Below, Independent Looks at all the time that Sir Kir has focused on his promises or let the voters go on a journey from Labor Leader to the Prime Minister.
Winter fuel payment
In July, the Chancellor announced that pensioners would not get the benefits of pension credit or other resources. Winter fuel payment – Pay £ 300 to help energy costs in cold months.
After spending months before a U-turn, in May, the Prime Minister told the MPs that he now wants to ensure that more pensioners are eligible for payment-he claimed that something has come as a result of improving the economic picture.
After the announcement, there is still little expansion of who will be eligible. Pension Minister Torsten Bell said there There will be no return for a universal payment for all And it is expected that the government will replace the £ 11,500 limit instead, which people can claim.
But there is no simple way to process that, there are reports that all pensioners can be paid allowance, later with the amount Paid by high income people,
Two-child profit hats
Promising in 2020 to create a social security system for the 21st century, Sir Kir said: “We should scrap the private provision of inhuman work capacity assessment and disability assessment … Scrap punitive restrictions, two-children limit and profit cap.”
But before the election, Sir Kir said that the labor tori policy was “not changing” if Labor to win power. He is clinging to his guns, even seven labor MPs have been suspended to revolt against his king’s speech, with the policy abolished.
And now, it seems that the Prime Minister is ready to return to this post. While nothing has been declared, the Prime Minister is said to be in favor of lifting the cap privately.
He has refused to do anything until the strategy of child poverty is published in the autumn, but he insisted that he is “absolutely determined” to “run down” to child poverty and has repeatedly ignored questions on the issue when pressed on it.
Vaspi women
In an interview in 2022, Sir Kir said: “You keep all your working life in mind on which you can retire and get your pension, and as soon as you move towards it, goalposts move and you don’t get it, and this is a real injustice.
“We need to do something about it. It was not the basis on which you paid or the basis you were working.”
But in one A familiar change of tune since becoming Prime MinisterSir Kir sent his work and pension to the secretary to tell women against state pension inequality last year, shot Women, they will not get any compensation.
£ 28bn Green Investment Play
As Chhaya Chancellor, Rahel reeves In September 2021, the Green Investment at the Labor Conference announced the party’s plans for an additional £ 28BN a year.
But before the election, Sir Kir made £ 28bn a target of per year and said that he would spend a small amount to pledge on great British energy, a National Money Fund for clean investment and energy efficiency.
National Insurance
The pre-Labor manifesto manifesto promised not to increase national insurance.
It states: “Labor will not increase taxes on working people, which is why we will not increase national insurance, original, high, or additional rates of income tax, or VAT.”
However, Sir Kir and Chancellor Ms. Reeves used the ambiguity of whether they mean that the employer or employee to pledge the national insurance contribution to power in the first budget of Labor.
The pair argues that they only promised to keep the employee contribution frozen and instead the employer launched the land firms with a 2 percent increase for the national insurance contribution.
Tractor tax
Farmers have also said that they feel betrayed by the PM after the 2023 National Farmers Union (NFU) speech by PM, in which they promised to “do a new relationship with rural areas and farmers”.
Sir Keir claimed to be worried that “each day brings a new existence risk for British farming. He said:” Losing a farm is not like losing any other business, it cannot come back. ” ,
Further, Shadow Environment Secretary Steve Reid said that it was “desperate nonsense”, to suggest that he would scrap the tax break for farmers a few weeks before the July 4 survey.
However, in another highly unpopular budget bombing, Sir Keir reduced agricultural property relief, which means that he would have 20 percent of the levy on the cultivated property of more than £ 1M in the first relaxed fields.
Critics have said that it is forced to sell the family farmers, which removes the heart from the communities in the rural areas.
Bankers bonus
Strict rules on the bonus, which limit the annual payment twice to a banker’s salary, were introduced by the European Union to avoid excessive risk after the 2008 financial crisis in 2014.
Former Prime Minister Liz Trus and Chancellor Quarti Quarteng abolished the cap in 2022 to encourage higher investment in the UK.
Sir Keir vowed to restore the first cap, saying in 2022, saying that raising it “shows Tories what so many people are doing”.
But in another major U-turn, Ms. Reeves announced before the election that the party “had no intention of bringing it back”.
10 vows
To become the leader of the labor party, Sir Kir’s dialect was based on 10 vows, now almost all were briefly dumped.
They included promises to increase income tax for top -earning, abolish tuition fees, support the public ownership of energy and water firms, give the rights of voting to the European Union citizens and protect the freedom of the movement.
He has said that a difficult economic background means that promises are no longer deliverable. But many labor members who supported the bid of the leadership of Sir Keir felt betrayal, arguing that he introduced as a left winger to win over Corbinistas before pilling fast to the right.
Non-domes
After the figure A migration of millionaire from the UK was intensified Ever since Labor took over, Chancellor Ms. Reeves offered a concession to the super-rich and indicated Labor, which would return to his non-dome.
The planned changes will see the expansion of the temporary repayment facility to labor, which allows non-domes to bring income and capital benefits in the UK with the minimum tax bill.
