If you actually paid attention to the budget, you'd realise that smaller businesses have explicitly been awarded a larger allowance before they start paying employee NI. They can employ the equivalent of 4 FTE at the living wage without having to pay any NI

1. Travel costs is up 2. Home council tax is up. 3. Cruel inheritance tax is up. 4. Freedom is down. 5. Farmers tax is up. 6.

_Freedom is down_ Freedom for whom? Not everyone benefits from the privileges you enjoy - like multiple properties, private education, or private healthcare. Many people in the UK don’t have these options and may feel that these inequalities actually limit freedom, especially when essential services and opportunities aren't accessible to all. As we saw with 14 years of Tory government, when policies benefit only the wealthier portion of society, inequality grows, which can restrict overall freedom by creating barriers to advancement and opportunities for those less well-off. In a more equal society, everyone has a fairer chance to succeed, which ultimately strengthens freedom and opportunity across the board. A budget that seeks to address these disparities isn't necessarily bad; instead, it can aim to balance freedoms and resources so more people can pursue their goals and improve their quality of life.

@@sbor2020 Go to a communism country and see how that has pans out - taxing wealth weirdly is attacking the symptoms, not the underlying cause of why the ecomony is tanking.

They should give tax relief to people who send their kids to private school - because they ain't using the state's educational resources... obvious really. But yes labour - the party of small minded petty envious idiots...

"ive always voted Labour for all my life, i live up north, so to get the Country sorted, we will always vote labour. Our parents did, our grandparents did, so i will" THAT is whats wrong with this Country
I'm up North & after watching what Labour have done for years in power, then to the much needed council! I personally feel they make things worsed for the poor "always have" I'll never vote for them.
Best comment ever... "this country rewards people who don't work" bang on mate. Sickens me every time I look at what I pay in income tax every month partly to keep the bone idle and fund the endless influx of illegal immigrants.

absolutely.... small story, friend of mine owns a business that deals almost exclusively with European clients, lots of his staff voted for Brexit, then were shocked when they were made redundant following the massive impact of Brexit on their income source......
Absolutely. I came to England in 1974 from Denmark. I was shocked. London was was medieval. Nothing has changed believe me. I am perplexed as to why British people put up with it. Work ethic is appalling, unless the jpb is flashy with a 6 fig salary, bonuses and virtually a 3 day week and has status. People in the City roll in late Monday. Go for long weekends on Friday. Nothings changed. SMEs work for themselves. Growth here has always been poor. I could go on. The previous caller hit the nail on the head. The French work less hours, but productivity is double.
barry check the figures as of april next year if you have to put up wages plus the reduction of the ni threshold you will be crippled with massive wage increase i thing this budget will create a recession this is very very scary
To all the first time buyers in Cambridge, Brighton, London, Surrey or any other expensive city who want to buy an actual house with more than one room. Rachel Thieves just cost you a couple of thousand on top of the already overpriced housing price. She hasn't thought this through at all!
So many in government - are inexperienced, and that applies to Labour. I've never voted Labour, did not and never ever will. When Rishi Sunak slaughtered them today over their Labour budget - they sat there laughing and smug. Starmer and Reeves in particular. Well, that underpins how awful Labour and what it represents is.
If our country is up to the eyeballs in debt as we are told then this budget is not tough enough is it? Considering the vast debts we owe I think we may feel reasonably reassured we are able to cope with Rachel's plans for recovering our mutual financial stability.
What would you call him? This is a man who let Saville get away with abusing thousands more vulnerable kids, he is a monster! This comes from a labour supporter😢
Why pass on the cost just take a cut in your own personal earnings as a business owner , why do you think starmer said the ones with the broadest shoulder will pay
Question: You pay the raised NI, minimum wage etc. for all your existing employees and whack up your prices (then taking a profit hit because customers stop buying your product) OR you sack a few staff in order to keep your prices stable and retain your customers. Neither of these situations is good for the business or its owner. Your ignorance is staggering.

Rewarding Civil Servants who are working at home on the golf course!?!

I think not.
Lazy people have been rewarded since Blair 97’

Job n knock is best way to get productivity
Of course Sky News are praising it
Surely, Labour already invented ir35 regulations, and to have an income of up to £170,000 from working is very difficult outside the civil service ?.
do the state, NHS, civil service, police, armed forces etc have to pay NI contributions
Their staff do
@@madmelwood3778 yes ,but do they have pay employers Nl
