How we will Build:

To deliver a stronger economy it's vital our country lives within it's means.

That's why we've unveiled £47 billion worth of savings, to reduce the deficit and enable us to responsibly deliver tax cuts.

Our economic plan also involves reducing electricity costs with our Cheap Power plan and cutting regulations that are holding businesses back.

Our Savings Plan

  • Reform welfare and get people back to work. Saving £23 billion.
  • Reduce Civil Service headcount by 132,000 (back to 2016 levels). Saving £8 billion.
  • Implement our BORDERS plan and end asylum hotels. Saving £3.5 billion.
  • Restrict social housing to British nationals. Saving £3.9 billion
  • Scrap the costly and ineffective green subsidies being pushed by Ed Miliband. Saving £1.6 billion.
  • Cut overseas aid. Saving £7 billion.

Total savings: £47 Billion.

Tax cuts, growth measures and Kemi’s ‘golden Economic rule’

For every £1 saved in public spending, at least half will go towards reducing the deficit.

And the remainder will go towards affordable tax cuts and other pro-growth measures like:

  • Abolish Stamp Duty Land Tax on primary residences.
  • Scrap business rates for Retail, Hospitality and Leisure. Helping thousands of local high street businesses.
  • Introduce a First Job Bonus. A £5,000 tax cut for young people entering work for the first time to go into a savings account.
  • Repeal the Family Farm Tax. Backing farmers.
  • Repeal the Family Business Tax. Supporting the makers and risk takers.
  • Repeal the Education Tax. Supporting parents who invest in their children’s future.
  • Repeal the Energy Profits Levy. Backing our energy industry to create jobs and growth.

Energy

We've made it clear: The 2050 Net Zero target is impossible.

We all want to protect the environment. But not by imposing unfair costs on working people and businesses.

We will:

  • Repeal the Climate Change Act and prioritise cheap, reliable, abundant energy.
  • End Labour’s ban on new oil and gas licences and maximise extraction from the North Sea.
  • Save the average family £165 a year on electricity bills and deliver major savings for businesses.
  • Strengthen energy security by boosting domestic supply and reducing dependence on foreign energy.

Deregulation

We’ll free businesses from unnecessary red tape that holds back growth. To improve this we will:

  • Repeal Angela Rayner's Unemployment Bill which costs businesses £5 billion and forces private businesses to host union organisers in their place of work.
  • Make HMRC accountable by letting small businesses grade every interaction with HMRC.
  • Reform IR35 rules to simplify tax for the self-employed.
  • We’ll make it easier to open business bank accounts by overhauling regulations that presume guilt.

We are reviewing all regulations that are holding businesses back and we'll be announcing more deregulations in due course.

Supporting Aspiration

We back people who work hard, want to start a family and save up to do so.

More homes are needed, but Labour’s flagship planning reforms will not work. They are building homes in the countryside and not in towns and cities where people want to live.

We want to build more homes, in the right places, to support young families.

We will rewrite the London Plan, clearing the path to tens of thousands of new homes in our capital.

In addition to abolishing Stamp Duty Land Tax on primary residences and our First Job Bonus, we will also:

  • End the university debt trap by reducing wasteful taxpayer spending on certain degrees.
  • Double funding for apprenticeships so that school leavers have a genuine choice between university and vocational training.

By leaving the ECHR we can implement our BORDERs plan, deport all illegal arrivals and ensure the British politicians you elect decide who comes to our country and who doesn't.

Our plan to leave the ECHR

After a detailed report from Shadow Attorney General Lord Wolfson, the Conservatives have concluded that Britain must leave the ECHR.

  • It stops us deporting foreign criminals and protecting our veterans from vexatious legal attacks.
  • It prevents us from putting British citizens first in social housing and public services.
  • It blocks Parliament from ensuring sentences reflect its intentions.
  • It stops us from getting the homes and infrastructure we need built.

Leaving the ECHR will be challenging and complex. It will require a review of over 30 years of domestic legislation and international relations, and a union-wide approach, especially with respect to Northern Ireland.

Only the Conservative Party has done the necessary work to ensure this is done in an orderly way.

So that Britain can chart a brighter future outside the Convention, where British politicians, accountable to voters, make laws, not overseas judges.

Our BORDERS plan to cut illegal immigration

Once Britain is outside the European Court of Human Rights, we can implement our BORDERS plan. A tougher and more detailed strategy than anything proposed by other parties.

  • Ban asylum claims for illegal entrants
  • Out of the ECHR, ECAT and repeal HRA
  • Removals Force established, to remove 150,000 per year
  • Deport all new illegal arrivals within a week, and all foreign criminals
  • End the Immigration Tribunal, Judicial Review and legal aid for immigration cases
  • Returns agreements backed by visa sanctions
  • Support our allies abroad to prevent illegal entry to Europe

View more information about our BORDERS plan here.

We announced our Deportation Bill earlier in the year. We are now able to go further, developing stronger policy on legal immigration, enabled by Lord Wolfson’s review and our decision to leave ECHR. We will say more on cutting legal immigration soon.

Weak borders, and a weak economy put our NHS, our school system and our police forces at threat.  

Strengthening our economy and strengthening our borders allows us to safeguard the future of vital public services, invest in policing to crush crime and robustly assert Britain's national interests on the world stage.

Our plan to tackle crime

  • Hire 10,000 new police officers over three years.
  • Stop police forces from recording “non-crime hate incidents” which takes up 60,000 police hours a year. Ensure the police are focused on tackling real crimes.
  • Deploy more officers to 2,000 violent crime hotspots.
  • Triple the use of stop and search to save lives.
  • Clamp down on anti-social behaviour on public transport. With tougher enforcement of existing asb provisions on trains, and extending those powers for buses as well.
  • Tool theft and farm theft have surged in recent years, costing businesses £44 million in 2024. We would introduce more rural crime taskforces across the country to protect farmers facing rising crime levels.
  • We will also go after the resale markets that make tool theft profitable.

Sentencing and Justice

We would rewrite sentencing guidelines so that stealing from tradespeople or farmers is recognised as a serious, aggravated offence, not a minor inconvenience.

  • We’ll abolish the Sentencing Council and make the Lord Chancellor accountable for sentencing.
  • We’ll reform the Judicial Conducts Investigation Office, and restore discipline in prisons so that officers, not inmates, are in control.
  • We’ll abolish the Judicial Appointments Committee, returning responsibility for appointments to the Lord Chancellor, who will be accountable to Parliament

An NHS that works for everyone

The NHS will remain free at the point of use under a Conservative government.

That’s only possible with a strong economy, and leadership with the backbone to ensure the NHS works for patients, taxpayers and staff.

Labour have allowed NHS strikes to continue despite a 28.9% pay rise.

Enough is enough.

The Conservative Party will legislate for minimum service levels and ban doctors from striking to protect patient safety.

our children's safety and our children's future

  • The next Conservative government will introduce a zero tolerance policy on violence and poor behaviour in schools. This would protect both the learning of children who behave and ensure children who don't get the right support.
  • We are opposing Labour’s educational changes and defending decades of cross-party reforms that have driven up standards in our schools.
  • We are pushing for a nationwide ban on smartphones in schools. The evidence shows that smartphones in schools harm both the learning and mental health of children.
  • The Conservatives were the first to call for a national inquiry into the rape gang scandal, forcing Labour into a U-turn. We continue to campaign for victims to be heard and supported, and will vote for full transparency by publishing ethnicity data of offenders.

Championing Personal Freedoms

The Conservatives believe in individual liberty and responsibility. We're standing up to those who would erode free expression and personal choice.

  • We will scrap “non-crime hate incidents” that waste police time and threaten free speech.
  • We oppose Labour’s plans for Digital ID cards and scrap them when we return to office.
  • We have voted against smoking bans and the “Banter Ban” that would make landlords police pub conversations.
  • We have commissioned Lord Young of Acton to study threats to free speech in everyday life. He will report back later this year.

A Conservative Foreign Policy

We will always put Britain’s national interest first by ensuring our foreign policy strengthens our sovereignty, defends our allies, and advances British prosperity and security worldwide.

We:

  • Oppose Labour’s £35bn Chagos Islands surrender, which gives up a critical defence position and makes us pay for it.
  • Back Ukraine’s right to defend itself against Russian aggression.
  • Back Israel’s right to defend itself from terrorism.
  • Oppose Labour’s plan to let China build a “super embassy” in London.
  • Are pushing for transparency on the collapse of a trial against two men who allegedly spied for China.
  • Have pushed Labour to raise defence spending to 3% of GDP.
  • Will support service members via a new Armed Forces Housing Association
  • Reject Labour’s Brexit capitulation that would turn Britain back into a rule-taker from Brussels.
