0:57Now PlayingNon-doms, tax cuts and a new British ISA dominated a rowdy UK budget statement. Jeremy Hunt cut personal taxes for the second time in four months and signaled the UK’s ruling Conservative Party will campaign on a promise to go further, as the Chancellor of the Exchequer rolled out an election-year budget that was also carefully calibrated to avoid spooking investors.
In his long-awaited speech, Hunt announced another 2 percentage-point cut to the national insurance payroll tax, just as he did in November. Taken together, he said, 27 million employees will get an average tax cut of £900 ($1,145) a year and the effective personal tax rate would drop to the lowest since 1975.
