Reform UK is staking its election hopes on a bold tax cut, promising to raise the personal allowance to £15,000 — putting cash directly into voters’ pockets — while facing a major funding scandal over alleged foreign donation discussions. Despite denying wrongdoing and claiming no illegal money was taken, Labour and the Lib Dems have referred the matter to police, with the Electoral Commission now investigating. The party plans to fund the tax cut by slashing welfare and ditching net-zero targets, estimating most taxpayers would save £500 annually — potentially lifting 3 million from income tax. Their economic spokesman Robert Jenrick also vows to eventually push the threshold to £20,000, blaming current freezes for hurting low earners and pensions.
