EXCLUSIVE: RISHI SUNAK'S MESSAGE
The Prime Minister says the nation has “turned a corner” but claims a Sir Keir Starmer government would send taxes soaring and ensure the “scourge of illegal migration” continues.
In a rallying cry ahead of this week’s local elections, Mr Sunak declared himself the man to give people “peace of mind” and unlock a “brighter future”.
He promised that recent tax cuts and commitments to reform welfare and boost defence spending are “just the start” of what he has planned.
Speaking exclusively to the Sunday Express, he said: “I get up every day and I work as hard as I can to deliver on the things that matter to people.”
The PM faces a major test on Thursday with elections for mayors for England’s largest cities, thousands of councillors and police and crime commissioners.
The most recent WeThink poll shows 36 per cent of people plan to back Labour in the looming general election, as opposed to 18 per cent who will vote for the Tories.
In a direct appeal for the loyalty of voters, Mr Sunak said: “Stick with us and we can deliver a brighter future for you.”
A key ambition is axing National Insurance payments for workers.
Pledging to “keep cutting it until it’s gone,” he said: “It’s a double taxation on work. It’s unfair, we want hard work to be rewarded and that’s the benefits you get from sticking to the plan.”
