Same ol *hit.
Give with one hand, take with the other and trying to fool people that not increasing the personal income tax allowance is OK.

A radical change is required.

@Nimbus What i found interesting was the pension increase. Up until yesterday they were saying they weren't likely to raise it......co-incidentally ten minutes after that announcement, three energy companies said they were going to have to raise prices because inflation was too high !

Good, back in my hometown for the Christmas period and there's nothing quite like having a one to one beer with my dad at our craft beer place and also going to the pub for some pints with mates 😌
