@Keir_Starmer Percentages are an easy way to hide real numbers. What is the real number? And of course, whatever that is will only be based on official counts and not all the folk entering who have not been caught or we are aware of yetโฆ

@ScotsCopper As previous, the inflation guarantee applies to the second year also.
And it went to a vote amongst reps this time to decide to accept. Why post like this? Why not actually engage direct with SPF?
@GlasgowCC@rjh44249 And the SG and UK govt money comes from taxpayers so either way, itโs still a waste of taxpayer money when so many other things need fixing first!
@ScotsCopper Toad, you not aware the inflation guarantee applies to this year also? March will have an additional 0.4% in pay for last year to ensure the pay was minimum 1% above average inflation.
Same applies this year so if average inflation is 10% then pay increases to 11%.
"I will maintain all income tax and national insurance thresholds for a further three years from 2028".
Translation. Fiscal drag remains. Its a stealth tax. Freezing thresholds while average earnings rise mean people pay a bigger proportion of their income in tax. #Budget2026
