Rachel Reeves is set to slash tax-free saving pots in her Budget.
In a major blow to millions of hard-working savers, the Chancellor will significantly cut the annual £20,000 cash Isa tax-free allowance to £12,000, it emerged on Monday.
Reeves is expected to argue that the billions of pounds sitting in the savings accounts would generate better returns if it was invested in the riskier stock market.

Father Ted creator Graham Linehan has been cleared of harassment against a trans activist but guilty of criminal damage to their phone.
The 57-year-old comedy writer, who had faced trial at Westminster Magistrates' Court, denied both charges linked to posts made on social media and a confrontation at a conference in London in October 2024.
Summarising her judgment, District Judge Briony Clarke started by saying it was not for the court to pick sides in the debate about sex and gender identity.
She said she found Linehan was a "generally credible witness" and appeared to be "genuinely frank and honest", and that she was not satisfied his conduct amounted to harassment.

Schools across the UK were locked down this autumn as part of a state drill to tackle the threat of a new deadly virus.
Exercise Pegasus, which concluded last month and involved all major government departments, was the biggest pandemic simulation exercise the country has ever held.
Those participating in the drill were told a novel enterovirus had broken out on a fictional Island in southeast Asia before spreading across the world.
Unlike Covid-19, which disproportionately affected older age groups, the new virus was most lethal in the young. The virus, “EV-D68”, was said to cause respiratory failure, brain swelling and – in rare cases – paralysis in infants, children and teenagers.

Navy Chief says Britain 'Must prepare for war'!
As I am sure many of you know I have been an outspoken critic of our involvement in the completely needless Ukraine War. A war that would have been over with after a couple of weeks with minimal casualties. Alas, just like the Covid scam, they couldn't let…

A man was held down and forced to watch as migrants who smashed into his car raped his 18-year-old fiancée in Italy, according to police in Rome.
The couple, said to have been naked prior to the incident, had parked in a quiet corner of Tor Tre Teste, a park in the eastern part of the capital, minutes before they were surrounded by the group who attacked their vehicle.
Police said the attackers broke the window and first pulled the man, 24, from the car before forcing the woman out as she tried to cover herself with an item of clothing.
The man told cops he was restrained by two of the attackers as his fiancée was dragged a short distance away.
As she was sexually assaulted, he screamed for help, begged them to stop and even threatened revenge, but was unable to break free.
After the attack, all three perpetrators fled the scene. The couple, both Italian, then contracted police and filed a report.
Officers have since arrested three Moroccan men on charges of gang rape and robbery.
