Ed Balls clashes with Nigel Farage on ‘who would benefit most’ from Reform UK tax proposals

Good Morning Britain hosts grilled Nigel Farage on “who would benefit most” from Reform UK’s tax proposals on Tuesday morning (18 June).

Farage yesterday unveiled his party’s general election manifesto – which he dubbed a “contract” with voters – including plans to “simplify” the tax system.

“Who would gain most from your personal tax proposal? Somebody on the minimum wage, somebody on average earnings or somebody on £95,000 a year?” GMB host Ed Balls asked, beginning the clash.

Mr Farage responded by suggesting the “poorest in society” would benefit most from Reform’s proposal - a claim that the hosts disagreed with.
