Your "A bit" is my marginal tax rate going up by 50%. Sorry pal, but no one in their right mind who had the choice would bother.
There's not a tax expert alive who'd disagree with me either. Creating disincentives like this whilst, apparently, being "laser focused on growth" is just laughable. Don't even get me on to the Non Dom story above - "let's put people off living and investing in the UK whilst being laser focused on growth". Our government is in thrall to Treasury orthodoxy which prioritises the numbers adding up next year over sense. In terms of the depressing effect on the economy it's up there with the idiotic timing of Truss.
