Should the government abolish stamp duty for first-time buyers on homes worth less than  £425,000?

The government should abolish stamp duty for home purchases under £400,000 but only for people who own one home only.

Abolish stamp duty for buying any house at any price provided it is your only house (or you have 6 months to sell your old house). Tax second houses with 15% stamp duty.

I think that this would have the unintended consequence of inflating the value of properties under £425k. The bigger objective should be to discourage commercial practices that inflate the whole housing market and price regular people out.

Yes, but should be a set at a lower maximum value of the home, such as 250k, otherwise it will push up property prices further. If you can afford a mortgage for 425k, you can afford the stamp duty.

Stamp duty threshold should be track at 10% above the national average house price ensuring those buying an average house are not subject to yet another unfair tax.

Id rather higher rate of income tax than an other form of tax. Therefore those who earn more pay more. The economy would be better if the population could spend what little money they have

Yes, and dramatically increase stamp duty for domestic and foreign property speculators who bulk-purchase residential property
