Liz Truss – 2022 Statement Scrapping Tax Cut for High Earners

The statement made by Liz Truss, the Prime Minister, on 3 October 2022.

We get it and we have listened.

The abolition of the 45pc rate had become a distraction from our mission to get Britain moving.

Our focus now is on building a high growth economy that funds world-class public services, boosts wages, and creates opportunities across the country.
