Back to school with Jeremy. The budget – work and pensions.
The FT is seldom wrong about these things. What changes in pension taxation there will be , will be targeted. Hunt will try to tackle the NHS staffing crisis by changing pension rules that are blamed for dissuading senior doctors … Continue reading
An autumn statement for Britain – not the Tories.
Today Jeremy Hunt will stand up and tell us his plan for getting Britain out of the shit, or at least for moving the shit around so that we all get some of the smelly stuff and it doesn’t … Continue reading
Loosening the pension charge cap
This move will enable your #pension scheme to invest more widley to help ‘build back better’. The deal is you may pay higher charges with no guarantee of higher returns. https://t.co/dBkJoXhFsT — Josephine Cumbo (@JosephineCumbo) October 27, 2021 Plans to … Continue reading
Was that “do-nothing” budget good or bad for pensions?

The half completed bridge – pension tax reform.
Today is Budget Day, though you wouldn’t know it! It’s a kind of side-issue when mainstream news is dominated by Trump’s latest antics and speculation over BREXIT. There was a time when the Pension world would be … Continue reading

Budget blues for Osborne – but not for payroll
This was a blue budget for George Osborne, one that promised much, and delivered little rather less than planned. Things started going wrong three weeks before Budget Day when the Treasury announced that it would not be pressing ahead with … Continue reading
