On Friday, the UK Chancellor of the Exchequer, Kwasi Kwarteng unveiled a package of tax cuts that was the largest in 50 years.
The plan sets an ambitious target for 2.5% trend of growth, securing sustainable funding for public services and improving living standards for everyone.

A&M's Head of Real Estate and Managing Director Kersten Muller spoke with multiple publications on whether the package of major cuts to the Stamp Duty Land Tax will have its desired impact, and his scepticism on how the government will balance their income if they are taking a substantial loss from these relief measures.
