Manifesto tax policies of the main national political parties

As it is an election year we thought that in this issue we would outline the tax policies of the main national political parties as set out in their manifestos to help you make your decision on 7th May 2015. As history has shown manifesto pledges do not always turn into reality after the election. There are also many other policies other than taxation that should be taken into consideration before you cast your vote.

A common theme from all of the parties is that they will increase tax revenues by cracking down on tax evasion and aggressive tax avoidance.
