Hungary’s PM Viktor Orban has introduced tax relief for families with children, arguing it ensures nations endure by sustaining their people. With Britain and the West facing population decline, a similar policy tax exemptions for mothers or financial support could ease the burden of raising kids amid soaring childcare, education, and living costs. It would encourage larger families, countering shrinking birth rates and an aging workforce, while supporting women who often juggle caregiving and work. This could reduce child poverty, boost the economy, and strengthen communities.
Pair this with scrapping net zero to lower household bills and grocery prices, drilling for oil and gas to cut fuel & energy bills and tackling illegal migration and crime to free up resources. These steps could fund massive tax cuts and a housing program for young couples after four kids, their home is paid off, debt-free, and untouchable by the government. This would replace cramped, profit-driven new builds with spread-out homes, green spaces, and privacy, creating thriving British family communities. Starter homes, freed up by re-migration, and plots for grassroots businesses not kebab shops, phone repair shops or Middle Eastern barbers money laundering their way through our society and popping up in every street and crevice within our town and villages, this would then spark a new era for Britain’s future.
Simply an easy vote. Without a doubt should we encourage things for us over others.
We should be encouraging celebration of our ways, to also do things that spark more joy in the way we do things, bringing back our local markets, community centers being better for families, men will chat, women will share, and the kids make new friends.
Here in Helsinki Finland, the investment into public fitness is nice for people. Kids have communal climbing frames and all sorts, and then for the adults, there is some nice communal sports and even sometimes gym equipment for them, its real nice.
Mental wellbeing and family wellbeing, followed by investing in the English/Welsh/Scottish/Irish.
Such commons sense but they just ignore what they should be promoting and investing in (growth of its own people) by going to an absolute radical extreme root of importing millions of low IQ 3rd worlders to fill the gaps that are ever expanding within our own society with our birth rates shrinking and our population getting older and older. We don’t have the money for logical things but for illogical agendas for the future which we really have no certainty on in any regard they just throw the wallet at it and hope they’ll be praised as saviours when it’s all said and done, YAWN! Once you understand their playbook you see it everywhere and in everything they do, just smoke and mirrors.
Yehh I agree it should be more (4) being the ideal bar in my mind that’s why I left it open with or more, but say we use 4 children as the minimum that should offer some sort of paid off mortgage on top of female tax exemption to make it fully attractive that people can buy into.
But I think until or however long it takes too sort out getting rid of net zero and opening up oil, gas and nuclear stations to drive prices down from food and bills to more family sustainability prices, 2 would be a start and then shift the goal posts further down the line when the economy is certain of its direction and use the 2 child + as a trial (that will be successful) and then everything works in cohesiveness until the affordability for cost of living becomes reasonable and then fashionable to have large families again.
While also reconstructing this crammed in new build epidemic we’re facing, more spaced out and maximum profit schemes by developers pushed to the side for better built housing with green spaces and community hubs for children to mix and play sports will create a new way of life and sense of community much like they have over in the UAE in Dubai but we could do it much better.
We should start this off from the moment of marriage, actually.
Perhaps a 5-10% slash on income taxes for couples under 35 who marry.
Research from the American Institute for Family Studies has shown again and again and again that the best way to raise a fertility rate is to have people marry. The married fertility rate is double what it is for unmarried mothers in the United States.
So some kind of staggered structure that offers a small cut in tax for the newly married, then a small cut for two children, then three etc.
This type of policy as it was implemented by Orban could be disastrous if you just decide to give it to anybody who has two or more children. It is a good policy to have in theory until you think about the current demographic situation that the country is in.
The foreigners who are replacing native Britons, such as Muslims who have been given citizenship by traitorous neo-liberal governments, are the ones with the highest birth rates. If you are not careful with this sort of policy you would just be enfranchising the replacists and disenfranchising native Britons even further.
For such a policy to work you first need to fully close the borders and then only offer this to people with provable pre-1940s ancestry in the UK, or figure out some other way to identify people who are actually British and not just foreigners expanding their foreign colonies / enclaves within Britain’s borders.
If this is assuming these types of people have already been deprived of citizenship or can be explicitly identified to exclude them from these sorts of privileges then the policy would work well.
Just to upset any lurking liberals, a policy like this will create a baby boom among the people we really do not need to increase the population. It is a chav’s charter.
I love the argument against this. I’m surprised I haven’t read it yet. “But then you’ll have women just getting prgnant for the money.” Yes, that is exactly what we hope will happen. Right now we are a society of peole who are so self centred and greedy that it is going to take financial bonuses to encourage a return to the nuclear family.
How often we hear of people sacrificing family for career. That is such a shameful dereliction of duty. It is selfish, narcisistic and will result in a massive upsurge of people in carehomes in thier 80’s waiting to die and being taken care of by the tax payer because they have nobody to look after them.
Why is nearly every decision people make today so completely without regard for the future. You have my vote sir.
I want a world of 1 billion not 9,000 000,000 it solves the worlds problem. We are like a cage of two love birds, with in a year the cage is full and the finches destroy each other. The only concern is financial but there were no issues in the UK after the black death plague, the poor people became richer.
Some great ideas, but may I suggest a point of reflection?
We work on the basis that we need more children. Why? To provide for those getting older in their dotage, through their contributions.
This is a good point, but We know also that the current population on this island, due to mass immigration, has resulted in a system well beyond it’s limits to provide the required services, be it water, electricity, medical care, schooling, policing, housing. Perhaps we should be enquiring how to manage a decline in population to a level four which these services can cope. I realise it is not an easy one, but we should perhaps reflect on it. Pollution would also benefit from this
