This was the first and possibly last Spring Budget for Philip Hammond, as it is to be replaced by a Spring Statement. Despite the shadow of Brexit hanging over the country Mr Hammond made very little mention of it and seemed to be trying to move away from the “Blame Everything on Brexit Culture”.
Similar to the 2016 Autumn Statement this Spring Budget had very little to get excited about, even the fuss over the rise in National Insurance for the Self Employed seems more political point scoring than actual concern at the effective tax rise.
