Autumn Budget 2025, Taxes rise as leaves fall gently, Growth is dissapointing

Some of the headlines include a freeze in income tax thresholds, an increase in the National Minimum Wage, a new per-mile tax for electric vehicles, the two-child benefit cap being lifted, and salary sacrifice on pension contributions will pay National Insurance. All this in the face of a lower growth forecast from the OBR.
