Summary
Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch says the party will scrap stamp duty on main home purchases if it forms the next government - overall, the tax raised £11.6bn for the government in 2023 / 24
Stamp duty is paid by someone purchasing a home in England and Northern Ireland - it begins on property costing £125,000, or £300,000 if it's your first home
Badenoch began her conference speech by saying the test in the 2020s is to "restore a strong economy, secure our borders, and rebuild Britain's strength"
Promising to cut spending and tax, she said that "whether it's Starmer, Farage, Corbyn or Davey, all these men are shaking the same magic money tree"
Badenoch said a Conservative government would scrap Labour's "vindictive tax on education... their tax on family farms [and] their tax on family businesses"
She then said her party would have a new economic "golden rule", with half of savings being used to reduce the deficit, and half being used to boost growth
