  • The Smokescreen Budget in the House of Commons Library George Osborne’S Claim That His Is a One Nation Budget Should Ensure Its Being Placed in the Fiction Section
    The Smokescreen Budget In the House of Commons Library George Osborne’s claim that his is a One Nation budget should ensure its being placed in the Fiction Section. Low-paid basic workers did not (for political purposes) exist, or had no right to exist, or could live on thin air. Yet it is on these that the world’s life finally depends. In the book of Ecclesiasticus, 38, the honour due to the doctor and the intellectual are duly acknowledged. The question is then raised ‘whose work sustains the fabric of the world’ – keeps its essential life going from one day to another. The answer is the basic worker. It is a twisted society which does not acknowledge and honour that. Osborne’s is the budget of a twisted society, as far from reality as is Alice in Wonderland. When, in a budget speech, a smokescreen is deliberately put in place, the wise will peer underneath to see what realities are being concealed. How is this done? Osborne used shock tactics. A Tory budget anticipating a living wage of £9 an hour! – enough to distract the attention of the unwary from the nitty-gritty substance! Yet, even at that point, awkward thoughts might have caused the wary to pause. One is that this will cost the government nothing. Another is that, if, at one fell swoop, the government could establish a living wage in the future why was this not done when basic wages were so low as to leave workers living on the margins. A third is that the target is distant enough, so that, by the time the date is reached, it may amount to no more than a minimum wage arrangement.

    The Lost Decade Updating Austerity in the United Kingdom Simon Lee University of Hull, England December, 2016 www.altausterity.mcmaster.ca | @altausterity ABOUT US Austerity and its Alternatives is an international knowledge mobilization project committed to expanding discussions on alternatives to fiscal consolidation and complimentary policies among policy communities and the public.

Austerity and its Alternatives is funded through the Partnership Development stream of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC). About the Authors Dr. Simon Lee ([email protected]) Dr. Lee is a Senior Lecturer in Politics and International Relations at the University of Hull in the UK. Report designed by the Centre for Communicating Knowledge at Ryerson University (excluding cover page). www.altausterity.mcmaster.ca Updating Austerity in the United Kingdom | Introduction Superficially, all appears well with the United Kingdom (UK) economy. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has forecast the UK to be the fastest growing economy among the Group of Seven (G7) major industrialised economies in 2016, with growth of 1.8%, slightly above the G7 average of 1.6%. In the three months to August 2016, there were 31.81 million people in work, including 3.45 million non‐UK nationals, or 74.5% of the 16‐64 population eligible for employment, the joint highest figure since comparable records began in 1971. Unemployment is 4.9% of the workforce, or technically full employment. In August 2016, 1000 people took strike action, the lowest figure since records began in January 1986.

  • APD – 10 Key Points Briefing From
    Air Passenger Duty Ten Key Points 1. APD was introduced in 1994 by Ken Clarke, the then Chancellor of the Exchequer, not as an environmental tax but because he considered the aviation industry to be lightly taxed compared to other sectors, largely arising from its exemption from fuel duty and VAT. 2. It was initially set at £5.00 for short haul economy travel, which accounts for more than three quarters of all air travel. In 1997 Ken Clarke doubled APD to £10.00 for short haul economy flights. 3. Gordon Brown halved the short haul economy rate of APD in 2001, put it back up again to £10.00 in 2007 and Alistair Darling raised it to £11.00 in 2009. George Osborne increased it to £12.00 in 2010. There was no increase in 2011 but it was raised to £13.00 in April 2012. Thus, for the vast majority of passengers APD has increased by just £3.00 (30%) over the past 15 years. 4. APD is payable only on departure from a UK airport and so the basic Band A rate of £13.00 is for a round trip to an overseas destination. APD is however payable on both legs of a domestic round trip within the UK. 5. APD raised £2.6 billion for public finances in 2011/12 and this is planned to increase to £3.9 billion by 2015/16. APD would, however, need to rise to four times its current level to offset the value of the industry’s exemption from fuel duty and VAT.

  • The Spending Challenge: How to Cut Spending While Maintaining Quality
    The Spending Challenge: how to cut spending while maintaining quality Julian McCrae BRIEFING PAPER September 2016 Summary The months since the EU referendum have been tumultuous times in British politics. This Autumn, Theresa May’s Government will have to set out how it meets many long-standing problems. But it is doing this in a surprising new context. As our new polling shows, the public are markedly more willing to believe that politicians will run government professionally and are capable of implementing the best policies for Britain. Brexit brings many new challenges to governing, but the old problems have not gone away. The Government still faces a huge spending challenge. While the Government has made clear that it is prepared to borrow more than planned should the economy deteriorate, Theresa May has also committed herself to continuing George Osborne’s cuts to day-to-day spending. As she has set herself against substantial tax rises, such cuts remain the only long-term way to balance Britain’s books. At the same time, none of the pressures on public services have gone away. The performance of key parts of the NHS, such as A&E, is still declining. The pressures on areas as diverse as social care or the prison service remain both obvious and severe. Meanwhile, polling shows that the public’s appetite for further austerity appears to be declining. And Theresa May has inherited manifesto pledges, like the seven-day NHS, that commit her to not just maintaining, but increasing, the scope of public services. In this context, if it wants to justify the public’s increased trust in its ability to deliver, then the Government needs to urgently set out a credible plan for implementing its planned cuts to day-to-day spending, while maintaining service quality.
