Are the Tories Mad to Cut Taxes?

From The Bunker – News without the nonsense Podmasters

As Tory leadership hopefuls pledge tax cuts galore, we ask if this would make any sense. What impact would these moves have? What else could they do instead? Andrew Harrison speaks to Giles Wilkes, a senior fellow from the Institute for Government and former special adviser to Theresa May on industrial and economic policy.

“I suspect they’re hoping the Tory membership don’t have a memory of the 70s and 80s.”
“These people running for the leadership are thinking in a three month timescale.”
“It’s a terrible idea to pump money into the economy right now.”
