Autumn Budget 2025 – Review

Information correct as at 27 November 2025

In her second Labour Budget, the Chancellor for the Exchequer, Rachel Reeves, stuck to the party’s manifesto commitments and didn’t increase the headline rates of tax.

No major taxes were impacted but the well-publicised freezing of allowances and rate bands were confirmed having the effect of bringing more people into the higher tax bands over the coming years. There were a number of other smaller changes to various taxes and reliefs which are discussed in our Budget Review click here
