Highly unlikely. The next election is well over 3 years away and the actual monthly difference on an average payslip isn’t enormous. Plus, when the election comes round, provided Boris has made some progress on service delivery, what exactly would Labour’s attack line be? Even now in the Commons Starmer is forced to take the ‘too little too late’ line because he knows it is untenable for a Labour leader to argue against modest tax hikes to pay for welfare services.

Nobody likes paying more than they have to but this just isn’t an electoral game changer.
