Thanksgiving is over and done with, and today I’m headed for York. I’ll be speaking at the University tonight, then going for a meal with some of the students. My title is “Second half priorities,” pointing to the fact that we are half way through the planned 5-year term of this coalition government.
Its first half has been dominated by the austerity measures, designed to haul the UK part-way out of the pit of debt and deficit it was dumped in by its predecessor. Now it’s time for more positive stuff, and I’ll be talking not just about an agenda for economic growth, but of the opportunity for some major structural reforms of the entire tax system.
