Labour says no to austerity, vows aggressive tax crackdown

‘Britain’s opposition Labour Party on Monday voiced strong anti-austerity sentiments and said it would enforce an aggressive policy of collecting taxes from the wealthy if it won the next election.

The Party’s top economic spokesman John McDonnell emphasized that major businesses will be forced to pay their “fair share” of taxes to help end austerity policies.

McDonnell said Labour was now “the only anti-austerity party in Britain,” adding that austerity is not “an economic necessity” and that it is rather “a political choice”.

He accused the Conservative-led government of making a “conscious decision” six years ago to protect the very wealthy at the expensive of ordinary people.’
