“The last budget of this parliament – they’ve had 14 years, and they use this moment to close a non-dom tax loophole that everyone has been aware of for years,” Ms Reeves told News’ Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips.
“If they had done this when we originally announced it, we could have brought in billions of pounds extra to either keep taxes down for working people” or invest in other priorities,” she said.
Chancellor Jeremy Hunt promised to reducing the tax status of non-doms, or non-domiciled individuals who live in the UK but have their permanent residence elsewhere, in his budget last Wednesday.
