The UK budget was yet another case of "spend now, pay later", with fiscal drag (the use of tax thresholds to increase the tax take via inflation) being one of the main tools deployed by the Chancellor. Is there a hidden upside here? https://t.co/HtelmaD01z ...

Its tax rises are heavily back-loaded whereas the spending starts now, meaning higher borrowing in the short term. And perhaps most damagingly, it dodged the reforms needed to lift Britain’s growth https://t.co/6931YpzjeX ...

I call the chancellor of their shatter. >> Rachel Reeves, as we all remember, infamously after our October 2024 budget, said she would not be coming back with uh more taxes or more borrowing, but she has come back with more tax. This is a very big tax raising package she's announced today.She's avoided, as expected, a direct manifesto breach by not raising income tax, etc. But there are a host of other uh tax raising measures and it's a pretty big it's very much loaded towards personal taxation increases wh ...

Madam Deputy Speaker, it is my understanding that the Office of Budget Responsibilities, Economic and Financial Outlook was released on their websites before this statement. This is deeply disappointing and a serious error on their part. The Office.The Office for Budget Responsibility have already made a statement taking full responsibility for their breach. Someone who has invested £1,000 a year in an average stocks and shares ISA every year since 1999 would be £50,000 better off today if it put that same ...
