UK Government Considers Tax Cuts and Welfare Benefit Changes

Broke On: Saturday, 18 November 2023 The UK government is considering tax cuts as inflation falls. The room for tax cuts is limited due to high inflation and the need to reduce debt as a proportion of GDP. Policies under consideration include scrapping inheritance tax, reducing the rate from 40% to 20% on estates above £325,000, and cancelling a planned increase on stamp duty. The chancellor is also expected to cancel the planned 5p increase in fuel duty from April next year, which will cost £6bn. The government is also expected to freeze tax thresholds into 2029, a policy that could raise another £6bn. The government is considering increasing penalties for those deemed fit to work but not seeking employment.
