Boris Johnson has refused to rule out the introduction of a windfall tax which would help to relieve pressure on the cost of living crisis. Speaking to LBC’s Nick Ferrari, Johnson said: ‘The disadvantage with those sorts of taxes is that they deter investment in the very things that they need to be investing in – new technology, in new energy supply.’ When asked by Ferrari whether he would completely rule out a windfall tax, he did not say whether that would be the case, instead saying that he did not ‘like them’
