| Taxes on households and companies have hit their highest level in 50 years, figures reveal.
The tax burden has soared to 34.6 per cent of gross domestic product – surpassing the 34.4 per cent recorded in the early Sixties.

But MPs piled criticism on the figures, compiled by The Daily Telegraph and the TaxPayers’ Alliance.
