## Resource

Andy Burnham’s rise as Labour’s potential next leader has sparked buzz — and fear — as whispers of a land value tax could hit homeowners in the South East hardest. While the idea isn’t official policy, the notion of taxing land value instead of property could force “asset rich but cash poor” homeowners to pay more, even if their income hasn’t kept up. Online debates rage: some see it as fair, others worry it’s a hidden tax on long-term owners. For now, it’s just one of many ideas floating around — no concrete plan yet.
