Manx TaxPayers' Alliance

The huge response from the people of the Isle of Man continues: almost 500 people have now signed the petition to return the extra Manx tax to the income taxpayers of the Isle of Man community.im/taxpayersallia…

Already, well over 300 people have signed the petition! This is an OUTSTANDING result - and we are only getting started! Retweet so others can join in supporting the return of the extra tax to the people of the Isle of Man

WINDFALL! Over £21.3 million in extra income tax was taken by the Isle of Man Government last year. Sign the petition to return it to the rightful owners: the people of the Isle of Man. community.im/taxpayersallia…

From 2005 to 2009, around 400 dwellings were completed each year in the Isle of Man. These days, around 200 dwellings are completed each year, despite a surge in migration applicants to the Isle of Man.

NEW DATA shows Manx housing supply remains at record lows, with only 199 dwellings completed in 2023 (the latest year which data is available for).

A passenger flying between Liverpool and Belfast pays twice as much aircraft passenger tax as a passenger flying from Liverpool to Isle of Man. This extra Manx tax is harmful for families and businesses, cutting options for travellers.

A passenger flying to & from Manchester and Aberdeen, Belfast, London, Newquay, Shetland, or Southampton pays twice as much aircraft passenger tax as a passenger flying from Manchester to Isle of Man. This extra Manx tax is harmful for families and businesses, cutting options.

@manxtaxpayers leads with positive and sensible policies to reform the Isle of Man and build a better future. These positive reforms for the upcoming budget combine to spur growth, ensure fairness, and safeguard the Island’s long-term prosperity. community.im/taxpayersallia…

As we said more than 18 months ago - while the Tynwald was voting to increase taxes on working Manx families - it is bad to hit low-paid workers with big increases in the real amount of tax they pay. community.im/taxpayersallia…

Great to see the belated acknowledgement of the points that the Manx TaxPayers' Alliance made in February 2023. Every convert is welcome!

@iamthewalrus74 Obviously, that is impossible to achieve when there's been (almost) no real national income growth over the last decade.

@iamthewalrus74 The Sir Jonathan Michael report argued that if the IOM Govt *didn't change* then DHSC funding would need to increase by 2.66% p/a in real terms. Using 2019 as the baseline, that would be over £400m this financial year. See page 42 here: gov.im/media/1365879/…

SEE THE GROWTH: A record £354m was budgeted for this year, yet DHSC and Manx Care will still overspend the record funding community.im/taxpayersallia…

Contrary to misleading claims from politicians in Tynwald today, passengers flying from London Gatwick to the Isle of Man pay double the aircraft passenger duty as passengers flying from London Gatwick to Belfast, Newquay, or Aberdeen. community.im/taxpayersallia…
