"The autumn statement will be the end with rumours of an income tax rise. If true, Sunak was right all along " I can't bring myself to believe she will raise income tax after all the pledges not to do that. It would be political suicide. Perhaps it's a clever diversion . If they let such rumours gather pace then come the statement all eyes will be on income tax leaving her room to sneak in other tax raises instead | |||

"unfortunately income tax rises across the whole board, is the only logical way to claw back the lost billions and get us back on track. caveat: they don't blow the income tax rises like they have the increased NI contributions etc.. However if she digs her heels in and clings onto the no income tax rises for working people, the hatchet jobs that will be dreamed up to raise the necessary funds will be painful and cause long lasting harm. " I read 2% income tax increase on basic rate will raise £8bn, and raise far less on 40% and 45% rates as there are less people paying those rates. Given she needs £30bn - £50bn what other options are on the table ? Disability before u turn £5bn over parliamentary term Pensioners winter fuel £1.7bn before u turn Farmers iht £230m this year, increasing to £520m by 2028/29 Private school fee vat £460m Relatively insignificant sums raised to far Income tax increase Reducing pension tax free cash/ isa allowances £100m grab on classic car ved Increase cgt rates, allowances have already been quartered Some changes to iht Entrepreneurs relief already capped at £1m Annual property tax / annual asset tax rumoured | |||

The uplift in NI contributions has damaged that, with job losses, expansion slow downs and making products from the UK too expensive. If they could hold off from hitting business and actively support business we could see improvement. If the budget is aimed at business and those that create business, we could be in for some nasty surprises. | |||
