Original Note:
Despite the NI cuts, millions will still pay more tax overall because of changes to the tax thresholds. The job of cutting inflation is for the Bank of England not the government. It was always inappropriate for the government to have a target/pledge to halve inflation. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-9687/#:~:text=Freezing%20tax%20thresholds%20increases%20people's,tax%20at%20a%20higher%20rate. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/economic-update-will-lower-inflation-lead-to-interest-rate-cuts/
