this is my analysis

  1. Income Tax Adjustments: The income tax bands and rates have been adjusted to provide relief to middle-income earners. The entry point for the higher tax band has been increased, allowing more income to be taxed at the lower rate
  2. Universal Social Charge (USC): The USC rates have been revised to reduce the burden on lower and middle-income earners. The threshold for the higher USC rate has been increased
  3. Tax Credits: There have been increases in personal tax credits, employee tax credits, and home carer tax credits. This will result in higher take-home pay for PAYE workers
  4. Remote Working Allowance: The remote working daily allowance has been increased to support employees who work from home. This allowance can be claimed tax-free up to a certain amount per day
  5. Pension Contributions: Changes have been made to the pension contribution limits and tax reliefs to encourage more people to save for retirement. The maximum allowable pension contribution has been increased

Astute as always.

Formatting looks somewhat familiar though.

Consistent formatting is essential for several reasons, and here are seven key points to consider:

  1. Professional Appearance: Consistent formatting gives documents a polished and professional look, which can enhance the credibility and reputation of the organization

.
2. Improved Readability: When documents follow a consistent format, they are easier to read and understand. This helps the reader to quickly grasp the key points and information

.
3. Enhanced Communication: Consistent formatting ensures that the message is conveyed clearly and effectively. It reduces the chances of misinterpretation and helps in delivering the intended message accurately

.
4. Efficiency in Editing and Reviewing: When documents are consistently formatted, it becomes easier to edit and review them. This saves time and effort for both the writer and the reviewer

.
5. Brand Identity: Consistent formatting helps in maintaining the brand identity of the organization. It ensures that all documents reflect the same style and tone, which is crucial for brand recognition

.
6. Compliance and Standardization: Many industries have specific formatting standards and guidelines. Consistent formatting ensures compliance with these standards, which can be important for legal and regulatory purposes

.
7. Ease of Collaboration: When multiple people are working on a document, consistent formatting makes it easier to collaborate. It ensures that everyone is on the same page and reduces the chances of formatting conflicts

The only positive is that it might make more people think itā€™s worthwhile to work.

I was about to reply to say a lot of consultancies, industry bodies & lobby groups have now gone down the ā€œbudget review podcastā€ route. Iā€™m sure there are still some breakfast options too. Please advise @Appendage & @briantinnion.

How much a week is the dole?

Can someone more knowledgeable with these things explain how a rise will mean a gain?

Fart gas and bangers are just as important as turkey & ham.

You have an amount of money in each bracket.

So the first 20k or whatever are not taxed at all.

Next say 20k is taxed at 20%

Rest at 40%

They are raising the bands, so less of your money will fall into the highest tax bracket.
