NEWS RELEASE: CenTax reacts to the Budget
“Today’s Budget was an opportunity to tackle tax reform head-on rather than yet more rate tinkering. Some of the Chancellor’s announcements are a small step in that direction. But they are less a ‘smorgasbord’, more a series of nibbles.
“This may feel like a ‘big Budget’ of tax reforms, but that’s only because successive governments have done so little in the way of serious reform that we’ve forgotten what it looks like.

JOB OPPORTUNITY: Research Fellow (CenTax)
The Centre for the Analysis of Taxation (CenTax) is a research centre dedicated to advancing knowledge and understanding of taxation policies and practices. Led by Dr Arun Advani (Warwick) and Dr Andy Summers (LSE), research is undertaken to generate rigorous quantitative evidence on tax at the top, develop targeted and feasible reforms, and communicate findings transparently to policy, media and civil society stakeholders. Projects include analysis of the characteristics, behaviours and impacts of high earners in the UK; analyses of the UK’s “non-dom” regime, top-end migration, capital gains, and evaluation of policies for taxing wealth in the UK. Further details are available on the CenTax webpage.
