Predicting Reeves' first budget moves: Expect a blend of safe choices with bold optics. Key targets likely include hiking employer NI contributions, removing private school VAT exemptions, and adjusting capital gains tax rates. The real story? The shift to PSNFL metrics - a clever accounting move creating £50bn+ headroom. But markets aren't easily fooled. Labour's first major fiscal event will likely prioritize stability over sweeping changes to maintain market confidence.
