Actually, the amount from the £2m house tax is not as high as I thought. But that and gambling taxes will bring in about £1.5bn a year. I'm ok with that.

Hopefully this means that the government won't need to make any more changes (the ones made to new claims were pretty drastic already). Looks like Reeves/Kendall/Starmer may have been panicked by unnecessarily pessimistic forecasts. Hopefully now the Timms review can take place in a calmer atmosphere.

Gambling is an interesting one, because what can they do? Reduce free bets, lower odds so the profit is simply not there.

I suppose ramping up on those things it can control such as games and virtual betting, then again its probably where they pull the money in anyhow.
