At NONPOL, as we are a new and small party, we don’t have top economists, researchers or mathematicians to calculate the exact figures that will generate the money to fund our policies. However, the following concepts and ideas explain how we would raise money or save money, which can then be used to fund the new and fresh ideas in our manifesto. All of these ideas would be at no cost to the taxpayer through any tax increases. Hopely you will see we are unique in these ideas as no other parties, at this stage, are considering our ideas.

We have 6 ideas that in the short term would bring in large amounts of money quickly, as follows;

1.    SUPER TAX:NONPOL would tax the super companies. A super company is a company that has a global turnover of more than £5 billion, such as Amazon. They would be taxed on the size of their workforce or physical footprint, not on their profits.  There would be a minimum tax rate where they would pay in the region of £100 million per year but adjusted up if they have a major presence in the UK. People may say that Amazon will then leave the UK. We think not. Amazon has created a very successful model and market and if they don’t like the super tax, then competitors like Temu or Alibaba will readily fill the gap.
2. PROFIT FROM IMMIGRATION:Under our immigration policy we would declare a national emergency to allow us to use the military to support our immigration crisis, note we had this idea long before President Trump. We would generate huge instant savings by bringing our troops and weapon system back home from unnecessary wars or overseas military locations. Currently every bullet fired in wars such as Yemen, Gaza and the Ukraine as well as training exercises around the globe, costs the taxpayer between £0.65 and £1.30 per bullet. The costs are much higher for the complex weapon and missile systems, such as those on our battleship armaments. The cost to patrol the Yemen straits is insane. By reducing our military footprint in regions we don’t need to be in, we will save billions in military cost savings. NATO and UN combined forces should be patrolling these regions, not the UK Military and the US military. The Army would then set up a Green Tent Villages, like the TV program MASH, to house all the Immigrants, where they can then build their own University Campus for them to learn English, Maths and a trade. The saving on hotel bills for immigrants would again save the taxpayer millions. Furthermore, and in the long term, when an immigrant has been trained and then employed, they would pay back all the costs incurred for their housing, feeding, clothing and training through their tac code or through a loan, like a student loan. Over time our immigration policy besides saving money to the taxpayer, would become a revenue stream.
3. PROFIT FROM POLUTION: Many large American asset funds such as Black Rock, Vanguard and State Street have infiltrated our Utilities markets and have become significant shareholders. These Asset Funds have very deep pockets. In 2024 Water pollution fines increased from £250,000 to £250 million, which is a huge rise and gives us an opportunity to litigate the polluters so besides raising huge sums we get cleaner and fresher waterways. We need to go hard core on suing the water companies for their pollution infringements.
4. SAVE SPENDING ON OVERSEAS AID:Immediately stop sending taxpayers money under the auspices of overseas aid. The Department of Government Efficient in the states has uncovered huge levels of corruption and misappropriated taxpayers’ money in overseas aid. It would be naive to think this is not happening with the UK. Because the west and UK are so benevolent with war torn or storm hit or poverty driven countries the local governments don’t make their own effort or use their own money or resources to deal with these crisis’s. Even in the poorest places like the Congo they have billionaires or are very rich in valuable minerals. This should be supporting their own countries’ needs and not relying on the woke guilty conscious west. If we can’t fix the UK how can we fix the world? The west falls for the propaganda and emotionally triggered adverts on starving children or dying donkeys to squeeze money from us. The governments in these regions are so corrupt that they have amassed huge riches and wealth at our expense and naivety. The UK has undernourished or neglected children. Will they send money to us? We need to force these corrupt governments to finance their own crisis.
5.    REVENUE FROM PRISONS:There is a cost to running prisons and the inmates should be charged the cost of their incarceration, paid back like a student’s loan or through their tax code. Long term criminals should have their assets seized to pay their bill. Prisons can become a revenue stream rather than a cost to the taxpayer. We should use prison Labour to build new prisons. Give them a chance to earn their keep and pay back their debt to society. There are huge opportunities to turn the prison system into a revenue stream if we think laterally.
6. NET ZERO STUPIDITY:Stop NET ZERO initiative immediately – saving £29 billion per year! This is one of the biggest scams our governments have fallen for. As the UK only contributes 2% of the global greenhouse gases we have no effect on the climate. Yet we are crippling industry and our farmers with bizarre and stupid net zero initiatives. This is a total waste of money and has a huge negative impact on our economy. NONPOL would focus all its effort and energy on forcing the main world polluters like China, India and the USA to reduce the carbon footprint. As this is highly unlikely to ever happen, we at NONPOL take the position of not trying to stop climate change, but how they prepare for the impacts of climate change. Net Zero policy is virtual signaling at the highest level but costing the UK taxpayers billions.

Besides these short term ways to generate income NONPOL has medium-term ways, as follows:

1. REFOCUS DEFENSE GOALS:We would stop further investment in Polaris. Insanely we call this a defense budget when we are investing in an offensive system. It is no good having submarines retaliating with Russia or China if mainland UK is getting nuked. This is not a defense strategy. The days of holding nukes as a deterrent are over. There are enough mad and bad people in power to not care about humanity. The risk is far too high to assume holding nukes alone is an adequate deterrent. We should invest our money in real defenses like the Iron Dome and ways to stop supersonic missiles. Like all good football teams, we should spend time and effort on our defense rather than our attack capabilities. Polaris and other offensive systems are costing the UK billions and are not defending the nation. Our whole bloated defense budget needs to be rationalised and bought into the reality of the modern world.
2. MANAGING TAXPAYERS MONEY:Under NONPOL, anyone on any form of benefit, which means they are being funded by the taxpayer, would only be allowed to have one bank account and it must be a government account, such as a post office account. There is too much benefit fraud or abuse of the benefits system, and we must find ways to control this. If someone really needs benefit, then they have nothing to hide. In fact, if some families are struggling, we can see through their bank account and provide extra help were needed. People who don’t like this approach obviously have something to hide. This concept alone would save billions in benefit claims and fraud purely as a deterrent to the benefit fraudsters. Good honest people would be happy to show their real financial state as this would lead to receiving better benefits to meet their needs. Besides fixing the benefit system, like the Department of Government Efficiency in the USA, we would analyse where every penny of taxpayers money is being spent and put a stop to the corruption and get people and organisation to payback taxpayers money not appropriately spent. Any misuse of taxpayers money or benefit fraud would be the equivalent to what the USA call a felony.
3. PAYING BENEFIT BACK:Any temporary benefits such as unemployment benefit need to be paid back once a person is re-employed, like a student loan. Where possible, we need to make this next generation understand that benefits are not for free. If people don’t have enough to pay back their debt to the taxpayer during their lifetime, the Government would have first call on their probate. It is surprising how people who seem to be poor have significant assets when they die.
4. LEGALISE CANNABIS:NONPOL would get the NHS to manufacture and distribute cannabis in chemists both for pain relief and social usage, under license, like alcohol. This would create huge revenues and also ensure non-toxic weed was not being distributed. Cannabis legalization has happened in many corners of the world. The UK needs to shed its prudeness and see the benefits to the users as well as generating a new and lucrative economy. All drugs, like alcohol, caffeine sugary sodas etc. has medical and social problems. But it is not beyond the wit of man to monitor and control these drugs to ensure minimal social damage.
5. WHITE LABEL THE NHS. NONPOL would buy a pharmaceutical company under the NHS so that we would get all our key drugs, like statins and metformin, at cost. We would then white label these drugs and sell them to other countries. The revenue from saving and profit in white labelling would be billions. It would also remove the political stranglehold of big pharma over government and media.
6. TRANSPORT INITIATIVES. Anything that uses the road must be licensed, MOT’d, insured and the operator must have a full license. At the moment illegal immigrants can by a scooter, put an ‘L plate’ on it and start earning money doing food deliveries to support the new epidemic of the fast-food delivery industry. In London alone, these scooters are numerous, dangerous and are causing havoc. It is senseless to allow somebody without appropriate training on our roads. NONPOL would make it a requirement that all motorbikes and scooter drivers have a full license. We would remove the concept of the open ‘L Plate’. At the moment if you pass your test, you can put an ‘L plate’ on a car and let a learner drive on the roads, without you having any driver instructor training. All driver training, be it on a car or motorbike, should be done by trained individuals. The only ‘L plate’ on the road should be from a qualified driver instructor. NONPOL would introduce a government driving school as there would be a huge demand for people to take lessons and tests. Besides making the roads safer there is a huge financial opportunity for enforcing these rules both to the government and driving instructors. NONPOL would also apply the same rules to push bikes. They must have a number plate, MOT, insurance and the cyclist must have a license. If you drive around Oxford at night, there are hundreds of students without lights causing havoc on the roads. Most university cities have the same problems. By introducing a cyclist’s license, if they are caught without lights at night, they will get penalty points, or their license taken away. Again, besides making the roads safer there are huge revenue streams here. Regardless of the potential revenue streams, this is just bloody common sense.

Besides short-term and medium-term strategies too save money, We have long-term strategies that will fix the UK economy forever.

1. 24/7 ECONOMY:Look to shift the UK Economy to a 24/7 footing across the board. This will hugely increase GDP, reduce unemployment and provide work for our good immigrants. We could also reduce the working week to 4 days, leaving 3 days for entertainment, recreation and other satisfying activities, giving a huge boost to these industries. Also, like Switzerland, we could make the minimum wage £25 per hour. Whether we like it or not, the world is becoming 24/7 and the sooner we adopt it, the sooner we will benefit financially from it. We need to be early adopters, not hesitant moaners. There are already many industries that are going 24/7 but for it to benefit the economy, everything has to be 24/7. The financial markets, the key drivers for the economy are 24/7 globally and many bank accounts are online and accessible 24/7. The 24/7 economy is coming. NONPOL would introduce many financial initiatives to support this plan but once a certain amount of momentum is in place, it will grow organically. Can you imagine a doctor or dentist’s surgery open 24/7? What a huge benefit to the health of the country. There would be no NHS waiting lists. School facilities can be run 24/7 and revenue generated, rather than them being closed. The corporate and financial world shouldn’t stop in the UK at 5pm at night, when it is going on somewhere else in the world. The extra free hours from a 4-day week with more income will increase the creative, relaxing and sporting activities we all could indulge in, which is healthy for the mind, body and soul. A 24/7 society would lead to people being happier, richer, healthier and more productive as a nation.
