Chancellor pushes for e-invoicing: What you need to know
The Chancellor unveiled a series of announcements last week that could have implications for UK businesses. One of the most relevant for business owners was the government’s push for electronic invoicing (e-invoicing).

Chancellor Rachel Reeves visited the US and Canada last week, and during an interview with Bloomberg was asked whether she was considering increasing capital gains tax.
