Political positions of Jeremy Corbyn

This article summarises the policies, views and voting record of Jeremy Corbyn, who since September 2015 has been the Leader of the Opposition and Leader of the Labour Party in the United Kingdom.
==Taxation and economy==
Corbyn has campaigned against Private Finance Initiative (PFI) schemes, supports the introduction of a £10 living wage and a higher rate of income tax for the wealthiest in society. He argues that many well off people are "quite happy to pay more tax to fund better public services or to pay down our debt", and criticised George Osborne for offering tax cuts for higher rate taxpayers.〔 He opposes the idea the UK budget deficit should be reduced to meet an “arbitrary deadline”, but also said that Labour would not reintroduce a current account deficit if budgets were balanced before 2020.
An initial proposal to find up to £120 billion that Corbyn alleged to be lost through tax avoidance and evasion, by investing £1 billion in HMRC, was strongly criticised by former Labour Leader Ed Miliband's former independent financial adviser, Jolyon Maugham Q.C., who claimed to have found a £100 billion "black hole" in Corbyn's plans. Advisor Richard Murphy clarified that the £120 billion figure reflects what he believes is the overall tax gap (which is substantially bigger than the HMRC figure of £34 billion for the overall tax gap). of which Murphy calculates the collectable portion of is up to £20 billion.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url = http://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2015/08/12/is-there-a-100-billion-hole-in-corbynomics/ )〕 Maugham stated that this lower figure would only be available if a range of very unlikely decisions were to be made by the current Chancellor of the Exchequer, saying that "if this (by Corbyn ) was a brilliant 'slam dunk' thing to do, it would have been done already".〔 In an interview with CNBC, Murphy said that "This issue is bigger than HMRC can deal with at the moment. Spending up to £300 million on staff could raise £8 billion extra, according to people I speak to at HMRC."
Corbyn also planned to reduce the £93 billion which companies receive in tax relief according to Kevin Farnsworth, a Senior Lecturer in Social Policy at York University.〔 〕 This amount is made up by several reliefs, including railway and energy subsidies, regional development grants, lower corporation tax for small businesses, relief on investment and government procurement from the private sector.〔 However, Corbyn criticised the Conservative government for not doing more to support the Redcar steel works with subsidies as the Italian government has done with their steel sector.
He has described year-on-year corporation tax cuts for companies with profits over £300,000〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Rates and allowances: Corporation Tax )〕 by current British Governments as a "race to the bottom". In 1990, Corbyn participated in the tax resistance movement against the Community Charge, also known as the Poll Tax, for which he faced imprisonment.
