In this episode of The Finance Geeks, Paul Cleworth and Warren Shute fire up the speculation engine ahead of the Autumn Budget 2025. With the economic pressure mounting and a fiscal gap to fill, they explore the rumours and forecasts swirling around Rachel Reeves' first major fiscal statement — and what financial planners should be doing right now to prepare. From possible changes to capital gains tax, inheritance tax, and pension relief, to tweaks on ISAs, NI, and VAT, the geeks break down the key tax areas under scrutiny. With clients already asking, “Should I take action before the budget?”, Paul and Warren lay out what's being whispered in the corridors of policy — and how planners can interpret the signs without causing panic. This isn't about panic planning — it's about readiness. With threshold freezes, stealth taxes, and a growing national debt, the landscape demands calm analysis and proactive conversations. Whether you're advising high earners, property investors, or business owners, this episode will help you think ahead before the Chancellor does. ========================== Chapters: 0:00 - Intro 2:11 - Rachel Reeves' Upcoming Autumn Budget - Rumoured changes & how to prepare ========================== Show Notes: Tax Planning & Trusts – Tandem Financial https://tandemfinancial.co.uk/login/insight/tax-planning/ Why is the Labour Government Warning of Tax Rises, and What Should You Do? – Tandem Financial https://tandemfinancial.co.uk/tandem-thinking/why-is-the-labour-government-warning-of-tax-rises-and-what-should-you-do/ Tax Efficient Investing – Tandem Financial https://tandemfinancial.co.uk/tandem-thinking/tax-efficient-investing/ ========================== Follow us our our social media channels: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thefinancegeekspodcast/ X: https://twitter.com/TheFinanceGeeks YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thefinancegeeks ========================== This show is designed to be informational only and does not constitute investment or financial advice.

He explains why it is happening and how it impacts everything from future mortgage rates and pension funds to government borrowing ahead of the Autumn Budget.Next, he looks at rising annuity rates (one of the major benefits of rising gilt yields) and reveals how much income you can secure from a £100,000 pension pot.

With households saving more and uncertainty rising, UK growth remains mediocre. In this episode from the PwC Economics team, Barret Kupelian Chief Economist and Andy Haldane Special Advisor speak to Simon Oates, UK Economics Leader on their latest thoughts on the economy, why households are saving and weigh on the Chancellor's high-level fiscal options for the Autumn Budget. They are also joined by Fatos Koc from the OECD on a fascinating discussion on global public debt levels.
With the Autumn Budget looming, this week The Rundown takes a look at one of the key players in shaping the government's fiscal policy, but one that we know little about. The forecast on the future health of the British economy delivered to Rachel Reeves by the Office for Budget Responsibility will have more impact on shaping what the Chancellor announces next month than almost anything else, but who are the unelected panjandrums who sit on the independent body known as the OBR, how reliable are their economic estimations, and why do they hold so much sway over the Treasury?Joining host Alain Tolhurst to discuss whether the OBR really runs Britain, and if it needs reform, or perhaps abolition all together as some have suggested, is the Conservative former Chancellor Jeremy Hunt, and Ben Zaranko, associate director at the think tank the Institute for Fiscal Studies, and Jeevun Sandher, a Labour MP and former member of the Treasury Select Committee.To sign up for our newsletters click hereAnd to submit your nomination for this year's Women in Westminster: The 100 list, click herePresented by Alain Tolhurst, produced by Nick Hilton and edited by Ewan Cameron for Podot
Despite repeated assurances that Labour would not break its election manifesto by hiking income tax, it appears it is now under consideration by the Chancellor in the Autumn Budget. Why is Rachel Reeves mulling over this U-turn, how much would it cost us, and would she really dare to do it? This is Money's Angharad Carrick, Helen Crane and Georgie Frost discuss. Speculation over a 'mansion tax' in the Budget has also reared its head again. The team discuss whether it's a good idea to tax people with pricey homes, and how on earth HM Revenue & Customs would decide whether someone's house is worth more than £2million or not. Elsewhere, some good news in store, as Goldman Sachs has predicted the Bank of England will cut interest rates at its meeting next week. Does fading inflation and sluggish growth mean this is now on the cards, and would the Bank dare to make a move before the Budget beast is unleashed? The team discuss. They also look at why we're now paying three times the energy standing charges we were six years ago, and why some chocolate biscuits can no longer call themselves chocolate.
The countdown is on: Chancellor Rachel Reeves has just six weeks to finalise her Autumn Budget before the November 26 deadline. This week, she was in Washington DC for the annual meeting of the IMF, where she hinted at tax rises for the rich, while pinning some blame for Britain's economic problems on her predecessors. The British public are not likely to love the chancellor's efforts to fill the projected £22bn hole, but who will they hold responsible? Host George Parker is joined by deputy opinion editor Miranda Green, associate editor and columnist Stephen Bush, and the FT's economics commentator Chris Giles for a deep dive into the UK's public finances, and to explain why the China spy case roiling Westminster is all about economics.Follow George on: @georgewparker.bsky.social or @GeorgeWParker; Chris on @chrisgiles.ft.com or @ChrisGiles_; Stephen on @stephenkb and Miranda on @greenmirandahere.bsky.social or @greenmirandaWant more?

Rachel Reeves has admitted that next month's Autumn Budget will see Labour raise taxes on the wealthy.As she was heading to Washington for meetings with the IMF, The Chancellor told Sky News she was “looking at tax and spending” ahead of the November 26th fiscal event, and then went on to tell The Guardian that taxes on the wealthy “will be part of the story”.On today's Daily T podcast, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley are joined by Sunday Telegraph editor Allister Heath, who calls Reeves's plans “delusional”, that her blaming Brexit for economic stagnation proves Labour “doesn't understand Britain” and says that “the moment you start saying to wealthy people ‘we're going to confiscate your money', it's the beginning of the end”.► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

The Brilliant World of FX is a new series by Deutsche Bank's FX research team where they actively debate the global macro and currency outlook. In this second episode, George Saravelos (Global Head of FX Research) moderates a discussion between Sanjay Raja (Chief UK Economist and Deputy Head of UKI Research) and Shreyas Gopal (Senior FX Strategist). The trio explore the economic and fiscal backdrop ahead of this year's key UK market event: the Autumn Budget. They debate the importance of the UK's fiscal rules for the currency and rates market outlook, where the UK is and isn't a global outlier, and offer some longer-term predictions and forecasts.
We look at changes which the Government has announced – and the speculation around those it hasn't. Pension inheritance rules will change in 2027. It may seem a long time away, but people are making plans now. We hear from some of those pension planners as they try to clear up any confusion around the changes. We also look at speculation around what might be in the Chancellor Rachel Reeves' Autumn Budget, which she announced this week will take place on November 26.His Majesty's Revenue and Customs tells Money Box it's deploying hundreds of staff to bring down waiting times for people making claims about missing state pension payments. It's already written to 370,000 people, mainly women, who took time off work to care for children and now might be getting less money than they should be because of an error in their National Insurance records. But given that HMRC has already admitted it's been, in its words, "inherently challenging" to try to fix the problem it might come as little surprise the vast majority of people still missing money, haven't been paid what they're owed. Just a few weeks ago thousands of would-be university students found out whether they had achieved the right grades to get into the university of their choice. Now comes the reality check, when many wonder how they will afford to pay for it. Some argue that the level of Government maintenance loans only covers half the true cost of student living. The Higher Education Policy Institute has just conducted a study into maintenance loans in England and reckons they only cover half of the true costs of student life.Presenter: Paul Lewis Reporter: Dan Whitworth Researchers: Amber Mehmood, Jo Krasner, Catherine Lund Editors: Jess Quayle, Craig Henderson

This week, Neil Insull is joined by Annie Hughes for her debut appearance, as they look at the top tax stories making the news: we finally have a date for the Autumn Budget.

A date has finally been announced for the Autumn Budget – 26 November. Richard Hattersley looks at the political kite flying that has happened over the summer and what we can potentially expect from the Budget. With the government's pledge not to increase national insurance, income tax and VAT, Hattersley shares his conversation with James Quarmby, a partner at Stephenson Haywood, on what he thinks will happen. From Downing Street to Brisbane, Tom Herbert speaks about Xerocon 2025. He details the big announcements and what caught his attention, namely Xero's new partnership with OpenAI, the parent company of ChatGPT. Herbert explores what this partnership means, its impact, and concerns over data and accuracy. Lastly, Matthew Ord recalls his conversations with Grace Hardy, founder of Hardy Accounting, and James Wright, lecturer for accountancy and finance at the University of Chichester, on the next generation's desire to start their own firm. With 75% of accounting students wanting to start their own business, Ord questions whether this is a wake-up call for the profession to rethink its approach to talent to tackle the skills gap.

Dubai is doing its best to draw in disillusioned young Britons, offering cut-price properties, visa incentives for entrepreneurs and of course, the prospect of paying no income tax. Footballer Rio Ferdinand and his family have even announced they are making the move - but two young families This is Money spoke to say it isn't just for sports stars and influencers. They say it's easier to start your own business, they can get petrol for 50p a litre, and send their children to private school. Helen Crane, Georgie Frost are joined by Money Mail editor and This is Money alumna and Money Mail editor Rachel Rickard-Straus to discuss whether the money incentives would ever be enough for them to do the same. It comes as yet another planned tax hike is being rumoured ahead of Labour's Autumn Budget. This time, landlords are being threatened with paying National Insurance on the income they make from rent - but who will the tax hike really hurt? Elsewhere, our savings expert Sylvia Morris is convinced NS&I will slash the rate on its ever-popular Premium Bonds this October. Georgie is ditching hers, but should you do the same - and where can you get a better rate? Finally Helen discusses helping a reader who was told she couldn't get her money back for an £883 ferry crossing her husband booked, as she had the wrong kind of death certificate.
Nigel Farage and Reform UK have dominated the summer political agenda with radical immigration proposals: leaving the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), repealing the Human Rights Act, and suspending the Refugee Convention. But are these policies legally possible – and politically effective?In this episode of Whitehall Sources, Calum Macdonald, Kirsty Buchanan and Jo Tanner break down:Farage's immigration plan and whether he's shaping or simply riding public opinion.Why Labour's response has been so weak – and whether Keir Starmer risks being outflanked on immigration.The Tory dilemma: can Kemi Badenoch or others reclaim ground after years of failure?Rachel Reeves' controversial proposal to slap National Insurance on landlords' rental income – will it fix the £50bn black hole or just squeeze tenants?No.10 turmoil: Starmer's shake-up of his top team, Treasury distrust, and growing Downing Street dysfunction.We also hear why Kirsty Allsopp thinks Reeves is "running the economy like Baldrick," and why some insiders fear the government could collapse if the Autumn Budget goes wrong.
We're still a couple of months away from the Autumn Budget, but already the rumour mill is in overdrive. But while pensions, inheritance and even cash Isas have taken the spotlight in the past year, this week, a new tax target has emerged... property. This week, Helen Crane, Lee Boyce and Georgie Frost look at the wild ideas being bandied about when it comes to reform on how we pay tax on homes. The Treasury shut down the idea of a ‘seller tax' on homes above £500,000, but other plans appear to be on the table. This includes an annual property tax to replace stamp duty, replacing council tax with an annual local tax based on property values and a potential ‘mansion tax' – AKA, levying a capital gains tax bill on properties sold over a certain value. Elsewhere, we warn over the rise of a sophisticated deepfake scam involving well known investment gurus – and how people were ensnared into a pump and dump ruse. We investigate the airport currency rip-off. Sure, most of us know we'll get a poorer rate by leaving it until the last minute, but did you know the sneaky tricks being used? And sticking with the holiday theme, Lee transports you to the brocantes of France… and talks through the stats that show we have no idea how to tip abroad.
How would you like a middle rate of income tax at 30%? Or capital gains tax to be slashed from 33 to 20%? Or perhaps a new fund to support companies affected by Donald Trump's new 15% tariff regime? Well, all of these things are on the wish list of the British Irish Chamber of Commerce ahead of this autumn's budget. All to discuss with Aidan Finnegan from the BICC.
The IMF has upgraded its global growth forecast - so things aren't quite as bleak as we feared. Still bleak, though.Ed Balls and George Osborne dig into what the numbers mean for Chancellor Rachel Reeves. With spending cuts ruled out and the Autumn Budget on the horizon, the question looms: can the government afford all it has promised? George thinks Reeves is avoiding the tough calls. Ed believes tax rises may be inevitable, unless Labour is willing to flirt with more debt and borrowing.Meanwhile, Keir Starmer has carefully negotiated an extraordinary weekend with the US President Donald Trump in Scotland, and has gone straight into a pledge to recognise the Palestinian state. What will this mean for the UK-US relationship?And with former Sun editor David Dinsmore appointed to shake up Downing Street comms, Ed and George reflect on what his appointment signals - and the risks when the people managing the message start making headlines themselves.To get episodes early and ad-free, join Political Currency Gold or the Kitchen Cabinet:

On 21 July 2025, the government published draft legislation for Finance Bill 2025-26 for consultation. In this brief episode, Mark Morton shares his immediate reaction. Much of the content was pre-announced, including:Inheritance Tax Overhaul – the government is proceeding with reforms to agricultural and business property reliefs, effective from April 2026, and bringing unused pension funds and death benefits into the scope of IHT from April 2027.Making Tax Digital (MTD) Evolves – the legislation aims to refine and simplify the MTD Income Tax and penalty reform regimes, including the deferral of implementation for specific groups and the pre-announced reduction in the qualifying income threshold to £20,000 from 2028/29 (based on returns for 2026/27).Tax Adviser Regulation - HMRC will mandate registration and minimum standards for tax advisers from April 2026, aiming to improve compliance and transparency.Carried Interest Recast – As announced at Autumn Budget 2024, qualifying carried interest will be taxed as trading income from 6 April 2026, aligning the tax treatment with other forms of remuneration.For more information on this topic and more, please visit www.mercia-group.com for further details.
As the Chancellor, Rachel Reeves, presents her Spring Statement, Money Box Live sifts through the details about what it all means for your personal finances.Changes to the welfare system have already been announced. It will be harder to claim a disability benefit called Personal Independence Payment (PIP) under plans which the government says will get more people into work. We'll analysis any new details on that.The Spring Statement comes ahead of big plans already announced in last year's Autumn Budget such as changes to stamp duty for home buyers and an increase to National Insurance Contributions for some employers, so as well as dissecting new announcements we'll also remind you what else coming in and when.Felicity Hannah is joined by Sarah Pennells, Consumer Finance Specialist at pensions company Royal London; Elsa Littlewood, Tax Partner at the accountancy firm BDO and Mike Brewer, Chief Economist and Deputy Chief Executive of the Resolution Foundation.Presenter: Felicity Hannah Producer: Sarah Rogers Reporter: Emma Smith Editor: Jess Quayle(This episode was first broadcast at 3pm on Wednesday 26th March, 2025)
In this week's episode of The Tax Factor, Roger Holman and Neil Insull look at the quiet storm that is April's new tax landscape - changes may have been light in the Spring Statement, but the devil, as ever, is in the (Autumn Budget) detail. In Guernsey, the government has done the unthinkable: opened a tax drop-in centre where people can actually talk to someone. A bold move that feels very different from HMRC’s current approach. There is the curious case of Timothy Bunting v HMRC, where an initially successful taxpayer ended up losing not only the argument, but also his cash and his relief and finally a timely nudge: It’s a good time to review your ISA’s.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Rachel Reeves is back to where she started after the Spring Statement, with her £9.9billion of budget headroom restored but at what cost. The Chancellor was true to her word and didn't turn this week's economic update into a second Budget, with no tax changes coming in. But a wave of spending cuts was announced, along with growth forecasts going both down and up. We also got the Office for Budget Responsibility's update on what Reeves' Autumn Budget tax rises will cost us, a threat to cash Isas and no reprieve for home buyers on stamp duty. On this podcast episode, Georgie Frost, Lee Boyce and Simon Lambert dive into the Spring Statement to explain why it happened, what it means and tackle the question of whether taxes are going to have to rise again in autumn. They look at the very important assumption being made by the OBR, which if it turns out to be wrong could mean there is a £48billion black hole in the sums. And is the entire thing a charade anyway and damaging to our future prospects? Simon explains why he thinks so. Finally, campaigners like Gary Stevenson claim this could all be solved with a wealth tax - is that where we will eventually end up?
The energy regulator Ofgem says suppliers must take urgent action to find out how widespread a problem back billing is. It's when suppliers send out new bills for electricity and gas from longer than 12 months ago, a practice that was banned in 2018. The development follows Money Box's investigation which discovered thousands of people have wrongly been receiving back bills. Paul Lewis interviews Tim Jarvis, Director General of Markets at Ofgem.And unspent pension pots will be subject to inheritance tax from 2027. This change, announced by Rachel Reeves in the Autumn Budget, means most unused pension funds will be included within the value of a person's estate for Inheritance Tax purposes from 6th April 2027. Money Box has been getting lots of emails from listeners who're now reconsidering their financial planning and are worried and upset about the new rules. The Treasury told us it continues to incentivise pensions savings for their intended purpose of funding retirement instead of them being openly used as a vehicle to transfer wealth. But how will the new rules work?Presenter: Paul Lewis Reporters: Dan Whitworth and Sarah Rogers Researcher: Eimear Devlin Editor: Jess Quayle(First broadcast 12pm Saturday 22nd February 2025)
Rachel Reeves is due to deliver her Spring Statement next week and it's probably safe to say this isn't the position she wanted to be in. After an Autumn Budget that raised spending and hiked taxes while locking the Chancellor in with a new fiscal rule, Reeves would have hoped to arrive in March with better news on the economy. Instead, Labour's not-a-tax-on-working-people national insurance hike on employers has backfired, at the same time as the growth forecasts have taken a downturn and borrowing costs have risen. So, what will the Chancellor do next week? Will she tweak her own fiscal rule, raise taxes again or cut spending in unprotected areas that are already suffering? As Rachel Reeves finds herself between a rock and a hard place, Georgie Frost, Lee Boyce and Simon Lambert look at what could happen in this podcast. Plus, what does the Bank of England holding rates and the potential future path mean for your savings and mortgage? What should you do to sort your Isa and pension now? Can you really give away £1million a year and dodge inheritance tax? And finally, the question that anyone like Simon who racks up the odd foreign traffic infraction needs answered, if you get a holiday parking fine, do you have to pay it?
This week, Head of Private Client John Bull joins Rob Goodley to talk about what a Trump presidency is likely to mean for the UK. They also look at rogue tax advisors and a tax ‘magic trick' that HMRC took exception to, as well as a little talked about point in the Autumn Budget which they think is a good move.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this podcast, Paul Beausang and Charlotte Stodell from our real estate tax team, in conversation with Rebekka Sandwell, revisit their pre-Budget predictions in light of the actual tax announcements in the Budget, and discuss the potential impact of those developments.
Following the Autumn Budget, Nimesh Shah and Roger Holman take a look at some of the areas that have angered farmers, small businesses and parents. But was the Budget quite restrained? Nimesh suspects the story on Capital Gains Taxes is not over and there might there be more dramatic reform and change to come.

The recent Autumn Budget, presented by Labour's Chancellor Rachel Reeves - the first female chancellor to present a budget in a red box - introduces significant changes to vehicle taxation and incentives in the UK. The proposed changes are part of broader efforts to incentivize the transition to zero-emission vehicles as part of the government's environmental objectives. These modifications extend tax benefits for fully electric cars while increasing tax liabilities for other vehicle types like PHEVs and combustion cars. ➤ COMPANY CAR TAX BENEFITS ➤ VEHICLE EXCISE DUTY (VED) ➤ IMPACT ON HYBRID VEHICLES - TAX RATE INCREASES ➤ BUSINESS FIRST YEAR ALLOWANCES ➤ CONVENTIONAL VEHICLE CHANGES ➤ DOUBLE-CAB PICK-UP CHANGES ➤ BUSINESS SUPPORT AND INCENTIVES TAX ALLOWANCES ➤ LONG-TERM GOALS AND TARGETS
In this episode, we critically examine the UK's Autumn Budget 2024, presented by Chancellor Rachel Reeves. We delve into the £40 billion tax hikes, including increases in employer National Insurance Contributions and capital gains tax rates, and assess their potential impact on businesses and economic growth. The episode also explores the significant public spending allocations, such as the additional £22.6 billion for the NHS and £6.7 billion for schools, questioning the effectiveness of these investments in stimulating long-term economic prosperity. We analyze market reactions, including the rise in government bond yields and concerns over increased borrowing and inflationary pressures. Furthermore, we discuss criticisms regarding the budget's alignment with Labour's campaign commitments and its implications for public trust. Join us for an in-depth analysis of the fiscal decisions shaping the UK's economic landscape.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mark-and-pete--1245374/support.
In this episode, we dive deep into the UK's 2024 Autumn Budget, a pivotal moment in British history. With Labour delivering their first budget in 14 years and the first female Chancellor leading the charge, there's a lot to unpack. We discuss the £22 billion black hole in the nation's finances, the biggest tax shake-up in a generation, and Labour's promise to avoid raising taxes on working people—meaning no increases in VAT, National Insurance, or Income Tax. But what does this really mean for businesses and entrepreneurs? How will these changes impact the UK economy, and more importantly, how do we address the growing debt crisis?
