Chancellor Jeremy Hunt is to cut Employees’ National Insurance by two percentage points from 6 January, a move that will save employees hundreds of pounds a year.

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has announced that the Government will abolish the “Class 2” National Insurance charge for self-employed people earning over £12,570 a year.

Investment and SIPP platform AJ Bell has called on the Chancellor to double the personal savings allowance in his Autumn Budget.

I must say Mr Hunt is routinely catching us financial hacks out on a regular basis, as he did this week with his Mansion House pension reforms.
