A very interesting new report, coordinated by @centaxuk.bsky.social, is co-authored by nine think tanks from across the political spectrum and sets out 7 packages of tax reform that all agree would make the UK tax system "fairer, more effective and more pro-growth” centax.org.uk/tax-reforms-...

Brilliant report from centax and others out yesterday. With even small tax changes seemingly able to wreck political reputations, we have to hope some appetite remains for the really big reforms that could boost growth. share.google/H8VbJvxsT5GZ...

🚨 NEW🚨 We’re really excited to launch ‘Tax Reforms for Growth’ today along with experts from across the political spectrum. Consensus on tax policy is rare, but we have a joint plan for fair, pro-growth tax reform in the UK🧵 centax.org.uk/tax-reforms-...

Call for Papers for NBER Spring Public Meeting is out, submission link below! conference.nber.org/confsubmit/b...

Much credulous reporting by the Times, BBC News and others this week that Rachel Reeves has "softened" the non-dom rules due to an "exodus of 10,000 millionaires". Where's that figure from, then? And is it the real reason for Reeves' amendment? www.newstatesman.com/politics/202...

Has Rachel Reeves given in to the non-doms?

Or is it just another win for the attention economy?

Disappointing piece on non-doms/millionaires in @thetimes.com Many things to object to, incl simple fact checking. No, there are not 37.8k ppl paying 30k a year to live here. There are 2.4k. Cd just check hmrc website for that. www.thetimes.com/article/labo... @tomjss.bsky.social #taxsky

Labour’s tax plans trigger exodus of millionaires from UK

Since the general election was called one dollar millionaire has left Britain every 45 minutes
