Britain has some of the highest energy prices in the world. Long-term, the answer must be nuclear, but we have a plan to cut bills right now. The next government must pass the LFG Emergency Energy Bill on Day 1, and implement the Fingleton Review in full.

• Scrap all levies from energy bills.
• Reopen the North Sea and directly deploy the tax revenue generated towards getting bills down.
• Pause offshore wind farm Contracts for Difference (CfDs)
• Launch an investigation into curtailment contracts.
• Hold auctions for connecting to the grid, and deploy the revenue generated to get bills down.
• Ditch the duties of the energy regulators, NESO and Ofgem, towards Net Zero, so their only focus is to minimise energy costs, subject to supply security.
• Scrap the Clean Power 2030 targets.
• Pass and implement all 47 measures in the Fingleton Review

Successive governments have made sustained GDP per capita growth illegal. Our plan lets businesses, society, and individuals grow once more.

1. Back British Creators. ⌄

   The Government is attempting to force social media companies to “privilege” content from big established companies like the BBC over those produced by independent content creators. Effective censorship like this stops jobs, money, and personal growth. To support new, growing creators, the Government must immediately abandon all attempts.

2. Quangos aren’t forever. ⌄

   Unelected bodies are blocking growth. They must have an expiry date and be renewed every 5 years by the Government. Those that deliver government policy should be folded back into the department; independent regulators would need reconfirmation by parliament; and other state bodies like the NAO could stay independent in perpetuity. To achieve this, the Government must pass primary legislation that explicitly places an expiry date on arms-length bodies in the UK.

3. Axe the tax trap on working parents. ⌄

   Parents are being punished simply for having children. A tax trap between £60,000-£80,000 means parents are facing an effective tax rate of over 50%. To give parents their pay rise back, the Government must change the High Income Child Benefit Charge so that 1% is clawed back every £400, not £200. This should be done through a Finance Bill amendment to Chapter 8 of Part 10 of Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003.

Britain used to build roads, railways, homes, and power stations. But now, we've stopped building stuff. We must learn to build infrastructure once more. Here's how:

Successive governments have waged a war on fun. Pubs, sports, community events have been under attack. That means they're forced to put their prices up or shut down. We're fighting to bring back fun.

Large swathes of crime are now legal in Britain because the Police won't act. Streets aren't safe anymore. Professional criminals are profiteering, and we're all paying the price. Economic growth comes when the streets are safe because people invest, spend, and stay put when they feel secure – businesses open, footfall goes up, and companies don't have to employ 24/7 security.

Our political system is broken and failing to deliver. We have a plan to give our elected representatives the power to make the changes necessary to bring back growth.

The current settlement has failed young, old, and the generations in between. We'll change that.
