🧰 🧰 🇬🇧 Start. Scale. Stay.
We want more entrepreneurs to start businesses in the UK, scale them here & stay for the long term.
Our new Entrepreneurship Prospectus, published today, backs founders with better incentives, & better access to customers, capital, talent & government support.
Here’s what we’re doing 🧵👇
No one should have to sleep rough, especially as winter approaches.
That's why we're doubling our investment, helping make sure people have a route off the streets – not just this winter, but for the years ahead.
Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine poses a serious threat to UK prosperity and security.
That's why this Budget is providing over £10bn in additional support to Ukraine.
Hardworking taxpayers deserve a benefits system that protects public money while supporting those who genuinely need it.
We're cracking down on welfare fraud, with 2,000 specialist fraud staff and tougher checks.
From Russian aggression and conflict in the Middle East to rapidly evolving technology, the threats we face are changing.
We’re fully funding our Defence Investment Plan to strengthen the security of the UK and our allies.
People who know their areas best should have more power to shape their future.
That's why this Budget is shifting power and funding out of Westminster and giving local leaders more control to drive growth in their communities.
We want the best entrepreneurs to start, scale and stay in Britain.
That’s why we’re backing businesses at every stage of growth, including with a new Founders’ Relief to encourage founders to scale here and reinvest in the next British success story.
Pubs, cafés, restaurants and shops are at the heart of our communities.
We’re giving them more breathing space, with 70,000 more retail, hospitality and leisure businesses paying no business rates from April 2027.
We know the cost of living is putting pressure on working people.
That's why we're raising the National Living Wage to £13.21 an hour and the 18-20 National Minimum Wage to £11.27, benefiting around 2.3 million workers.
With events in the Middle East pushing up fuel prices, we're giving drivers more breathing space.
This Budget extends the 5p fuel duty cut to July 2027.
With global pressures pushing up costs, we're taking action to give people more breathing space.
Households in council tax bands A-D in England will receive a £100 Household Energy Payment to help with bills this winter.

This is a Budget that steers Britain through global economic pressures.
It matches immediate action to provide breathing space for firms and families today with the big changes needed to give hope for the future - from energy to defence.
