Kemi Badenoch will accuse the Chancellor of plotting a “stealth tax bombshell” in a speech today.
The Tory leader will say the U-turn on welfare reforms following a Labour revolt and the expected scrapping of the two-child benefit cap will leave Ms Reeves needing to find £8.5 billion.
Mrs Badenoch will claim Sir Keir Starmer and Ms Reeves are considering “freezing income tax thresholds so that more and more people are dragged into higher rates through a stealth tax bombshell”.
