Review overtime taxation to make it fairer for UK workers
Many work overtime out of financial need, to make ends meet and do not do it always by choice, as it can reduce family time. Fairer overtime taxation could support workers, encourage extra hours in essential sectors, and help overstretched teams.
Review and reform administration of Universal Credit & compensation
Universal Credit was established to help provide financial stability & support to those in need. However, we believe mounting evidence & widespread testimonies are revealing that injustice, financial distress, & systemic mismanagement have become pervasive experiences for claimants nationwide.
