Disraeli Tax Claims Examined by Economist Critic
The Economist challenges Mr Disraeli by detailing that land taxes and rates fall unevenly and that shifts to the consolidated fund reduce land burden. It argues other property, including houses, mills, and railways, now pays more, and proposes that Disraeli’s remedy would shift tax burdens rather than relieve real property. The piece notes Manchester, Liverpool, and Birmingham boosted rents and land values.
