A new annual levy on land, 'death tax' to pay for social care and public control of the water industry. What policies would Andy Burnham implement as Prime Minister?

Speculation is intensifying about the potential policies Andy Burnham might push if he were to become Prime Minister. Among the proposed measures is a new annual levy on land dubbed the 'death tax', intended to fund social care and public control of the water industry. This move reflects a broader trend towards increased state intervention in sectors like healthcare and utilities, raising questions about its economic and social implications. Burnham's plans, if enacted, could significantly reshape the UK's fiscal and regulatory landscape.
