Budget continues with the freeze on tax personal allowance, £12570 since 2021.
Fiscal drag increased tax on the less well-off.
In 2026-27, a minimum wage earner would pay extra £980 in income tax & NIC.
£1,137 in 2027-28.
Cost of appeasing the rich.

Appeasing corporations and the super-rich, extra tax perks for the rich, but little for ordinary people.
