Mark and Norman discussing the latest UK 2025 Budget. The conversation highlights a chaotic lead-up with leaks and political manoeuvring. Key points include frozen income tax thresholds until 2031, increased taxes on savings, property income and dividends, and changes to ISA limits. Employment measures cover the removal of homeworking tax relief, minimum wage rises, and future restrictions on salary sacrifice. Business topics include adjustments to capital allowances and investment schemes, with criticism of the absence of a clear growth strategy. Inheritance and capital tax changes reduce certain reliefs, while compliance efforts aim to raise £10 billion annually.
