No it's the chance for a couple of years for the extremely rich to make a killing, I await their windfall trickling down to me :-)

Will it be in rubble or roubles though? ;-)

Was about to post pretty much this. France would have seen large scale riots well before now. You have to wonder where the tipping point here is.

When ITV can‘t afford to make Love Island.

I think it will be when Ant & Dec get taken off air for being too political.

That pay back to the Tory members who voted for her was certainly swift and handsome.

Us Brits have been known to vigorously tut on occasion though.

Yeah the benefit to me is in the NI change (circa £1k a year better off). I'm not in the additional rate bracket so no gravy there for me.

The thing is they claim that they are reducing tax to help grow the economy but surely if its that simple you can adjust any band and generate the same effect. The obvious question for them is what is it about people earning over £150k a year that made them want to target them, to reduce their tax, to help the economy. Why not tinker with the basic rate?

Income Tax rates and bands

Band	Taxable income	Tax rate
Personal Allowance	Up to £12,570	0%
Basic rate	£12,571 to £50,270	20%
Higher rate	£50,271 to £150,000	40%
Additional rate	over £150,000	45%

And don’t forget Sunak froze the rise in personal tax allowance until 2026, usually it went up by about £3-400 a year, so we are still fucked at the bottom.
