A previously announced increase in the headline rate of corporation tax, to 25% from 19%, is due to come into force in April.

Jeremy hunt is a failure at everything he does, but he has dirt on a few Tories. these tax breaks will be directly influenced on his wealth.

Always business - never people: that’s the Tories

Just realised he reminds me of Glen Roeder

Not, of course, to rush into anything...

Good for them, Cutting taxes boosts the economy CutTaxes

Get the rich and multinationals to pay their tax would be even better
