Morning Blast - 26th November: Budget Day Breakdown - The Smorgasbord of Tax Hikes

Hosts Ryan and Michael recap recent market moves and deliver a focused analysis of the UK Budget, outlining a "smorgasbord" of tax increases (income tax threshold freezes, salary-sacrifice changes, council tax revaluation and a mansion tax, EV pay‑per‑mile, tourist and gambling levies) alongside selected spending measures. They explain the likely fiscal shortfall, OBR downgrades, borrowing plans and risks to credibility, flag how markets may react, and run through key US economic and tech headlines — all with lively banter, rants and humour.
