FUNDING<br />

Universal public services,<br />

collectively provided<br />

through general taxation<br />

and free at the point of<br />

use for all, are how we<br />

guarantee the right to a<br />

good life.<br />

Public services do more than make sure everyone<br />

has the basics. They create shared experiences and<br />

strengthen social bonds. They make our lives richer and<br />

more fulfilling.<br />

A decade of Tory cuts has pushed our public services<br />

to breaking point. <strong>Labour</strong> offers real change – we<br />

will make Britain’s public services the best and most<br />

extensive in the world.<br />

We will pay for this by creating a fairer taxation system,<br />

asking for a little more from those with the broadest<br />

shoulders, and making sure that everyone pays what<br />

they owe.<br />

We will reverse some of the Tories’ cuts to corporation<br />

tax while keeping rates lower than in 2010.<br />

We’ll ask those who earn more than £80,000 a year to<br />

pay a little more income tax, while freezing National<br />

Insurance and income tax rates for everyone else.<br />
