Wealth Taxes and Public Services
UNISON general secretary Christina McAnea comments on the chancellor's speech, stating that the UK's public services are in a terrible state due to austerity and cuts.
"The UK's public services are in a terrible state because of austerity and cuts. The gloomy economic outlook demands a fiscal reset. That means raising taxes for those most able to pay more, and not those already struggling to pay their bills."
McAnea emphasizes the need to invest in essential services like the NHS, police, schools, and care, and to make big businesses and multinationals pay their fair share.
