Helping Hard Working People and Protecting Pensioners in Leeds

There’s a lot of noise on the economy but it’s the Conservative Party that has taken action to support people struggling to pay their bills. We are committed to:

  • £94 billion cost of living support package This will help millions, including extra support for the most vulnerable: low-income households, pensioners and disabled people

  • Energy Price Guarantee Extending the Energy Price Guarantee at the current level until the end of June 2023 and keeping the Guarantee in place until 2024, helping every household – by keeping typical household bills to £2,500

  • National Insurance Contributions cut Putting more money in your pocket by cutting NICs by 1.25% – saving 27.8 million an average of £330 in 2023-24.

  • £1,600 hike in the National Living Wage The largest increase in history – more than 2 million low paid workers will benefit from a new hourly rate of £10.42.

  • Protection of the Pensions Triple Lock Delivering the security pensioners deserve, the State Pension increased by 10.1% in April – the biggest cash increase in the State Pension ever.
