Spring statement: No extra pain on top of tax rises

Auto Express

|

April 02, 2025

CHANCELLOR Rachel Reeves chose not to increase the burden on drivers in her annual spring statement last week, and instead stuck to her previously announced policy of a single 'tax and spend' event annually - meaning drivers should be safe until the next autumn Budget at least.

Spring statement: No extra pain on top of tax rises

While nothing new for drivers was announced in the House of Commons as Reeves gave the Government’s response to the latest economic forecasts by the Office for Budget Responsibility, many are nonetheless confronting significant rises in their road tax bills as part of the package of measures outlined last year, which are only now coming into force.
