英国新任首相安迪·伯纳姆将首次出席议会问答时间,面对保守党领袖凯米·巴德诺克的质询。1与此同时,英国政府长期借贷成本已升至1998年以来的最高水平,加重了政府的财政压力。1这一背景下,税收和借贷问题预计将成为本次问答的焦点。
政府财政状况面临多重挑战。1财政部已失去120亿英镑的财政缓冲,其预算规则下的财政余地将从260亿英镑下降至138亿英镑。1保守党领袖巴德诺克已预演了五大质询议题,包括防务开支达到国内生产总值3%、边境控制协议、遣返外籍囚犯、税收承诺和福利削减等。1伯纳姆在上任第一周已宣布两项减税措施。1智库决议基金会的报告指出,若要增加防务开支,普通工薪族的税收可能需要随之上升。1
Prime Minister Andy Burnham will encounter his first Prime Minister's Questions as the government grapples with sharply rising long-term borrowing costs.1 The government's long-term borrowing expenses have climbed to their highest level since early 1998, with the Treasury losing £12 billion in fiscal buffer space.1 Under the Treasury's budget rules, fiscal headroom is projected to shrink from £26 billion to £13.8 billion.1
Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch has prepared lines of questioning centered on five main areas: defense spending reaching 3% of GDP, Rwanda-style agreements, the deportation of foreign prisoners, maintaining tax commitments in the budget, and welfare cuts.1 Taxation and borrowing are expected to dominate the exchange, particularly as Burnham announced two tax reduction measures during his first week in office.1 A report from the Institute for Fiscal Studies suggests that to accommodate increased defense spending, ordinary wage earners may face higher income taxes.1
