Fix this tax mess

from The Capitalist Hosted by CapX

Britain’s tax system is overly complex and destroys our growth prospects. Should Labour follow Australia’s lead and convene a roundtable of business leaders and experts to really overhaul the system? CapX’s deputy editor Joseph Dinnage is joined by Dr Lawrence Newport from Looking for Growth and the political strategist John Oxley for a clear-eyed look at how to cut the fat and get Britain moving again. Plus: the Tories say they’ll introduce fines for noisy phones on the tube. But who’s going to enforce the rule? And why is the Notting Hill Carnival still so dangerous?
