New Name - Spring Statement - all sounds very nice.
That's about where the positivity ends I suspect. What will Spreadsheet Phil say?

It's going to be another bend over and take it measure isn't it?

Wish someone would do that to that tw*t Hammond.

He reminds me of a geography supply teacher who had no control over the class and would hide in the store cupboard.

No measures in the Spring Statement, only consultations at most. They’ve been surprisingly quiet about the IR35 consultation in the lead-up, while briefing on the VAT consultation and others...

I'm guessing continued large scale tax avoidance by the super rich/multinationals and the NHS will have to pay for it.

Interesting, no IR35 consultation that I can see:
