Everyone keeps on going on about UKās tech scene - Silicon Roundabout All the names mentioned in the article are in the financial sector (Monzo, Starling etc). It makes sense given the UK has domain expertise in the finance sector.
But are these guys making in roads globally, or are they just domestic businesses. N26 (German) pulled out of the UK. Corporate UKās history is littered with companies running home with their tails between their legs having tried the world stage.
Anyway, the point is - what else is there other than online banks?
How about a reduction in pension relief for the highest tax bands. Could easily be justified e.g. why should secretaries, cleaners, researchers subsidise MPās salaries or why should nurses subsidise doctors salaries etc. etc.
So, the CGT allowance has been frozen until 2026.

NHS staff worked extremely hard this year many putting their lives on line to ensure that we were all looked after. They receive a 1% payrise.
MP salary over the last 10 years
Yeah⦠every time I see this sort of stuff I get really annoyed. Maybe partly due to the fact that the current populist political class is so poor and self serving. They donāt warrant their old salaries let alone any increases.
But then I think that the majority of people in this country vote for them, time after time. Further they donāt get out and support NHS is a meaningful way, as to make anything actually change, despite their reliance on it.
So I think this is really a reflection of the British people as a whole, and those of us that disagree are the minority.
Most people didnāt vote for the current Government. We need to change the voting system to PR.
I also blame the lack of credible opposition. I feel Labour are taking steps to move back to the centre but thereās still considerable power with Momentum. Who do people vote for when theyāre faced with Corbyn and McDonnell?
In terms of electability at least, itās a step in the right direction
