Tom - NI and Income Tax makes 32% for basic rate taxpayers being paid now. If we apply the logic of tax simplification and flat taxes NI and IT would be amalgamated and 30% would be a reasonable starting point with a plan to move it down to 20% eventually for everyone. Higher starting point for tax also tends to be the norm for these tax models and I have suggested that should be at the level a min wage earner would get for a 37.5 hour week.
I disagree with a land value tax as there are many people who are cash poor capital rich and that would pose a very serious problems. It would also help concentrate land holdings in the hands of fewer wealthier people.
More taxes do not solve our problems - more sensible fiscal management of public finances and boosting economic growth will.
