Our promise for a better, innovative and hopeful Britain

Reform UK's "Contract with You" presents a radical departure from traditional Conservative and Labour policies, promising fundamental changes to Britain's governance. The document outlines a nationalist, free-market approach prioritising reduced immigration, lower taxes, and decreased government intervention. It emphasises practical solutions to NHS waiting times and energy costs, while promoting British values and sovereignty. The plan claims to be fully costed through government savings and economic growth, with projected annual savings of £160 billion against costs of £141 billion.

  • Immigration control: Freezing non-essential immigration, stopping small boats, and implementing stricter border controls to protect public services and wages

  • Economic reforms: Raising income tax threshold to £20,000, cutting corporate tax, reducing government waste, and abandoning Net Zero policies to reduce energy costs

  • NHS reform: Zero waiting lists pledge, tax relief for medical staff, and introducing a voucher system for private treatment if NHS delays are too long

  • Law and order: Increasing police numbers by 40,000, implementing zero-tolerance policing, and tougher sentencing for criminals

  • Constitutional change: Leaving the European Convention on Human Rights, reforming the House of Lords, and protecting British sovereignty and values
