    i tend to agree.. the backing of 'The Savers' is real with this government though.

    That will mean a big loss for Hmrc, so it will mean they will recoup it another way.

    See my "flip-side" comments. HMT/HMRC will come out on top. :)

    Hmmmmmmm
    I will reserve judgement on that for a while.
    The 65+ was a vote catcher, which I took advantage of, but, I haven't noticed much from them , regarding anything else, as a saver.:)
    they didn't reverse Browns 10p raid on pensions, etc.
    They did increase Isa allowance, but, rates are so low, no one wants them, except hardened savers like myself,with a long term view,and the brass,to play the long game, hoping rates will rise in time.:cool:
    not for a long time yet.
    I have not fully funded this years allowance, the first since they came out.
    Old George is a bit of a con artist, with his eye on the hot seat.:)
    He giveth,on one hand, and he taketh with a bigger one.:rotfl:
