Every cabinet minister to benefit from change that ends top rate of tax for people on more than £150,000 a year
An estimated 41 MPs will benefit from the scrapping of the top rate of income tax – including every cabinet minister.
Owing to MPs’ standard pay increasing to £84,144 from April this year, 2022/23 would have been the first year that senior government ministers would have to pay the 45p rate of tax.
