Global economic impact

The UK's economic health doesn't exist in isolation. If Britain is seen as 'taxing itself to death', it could affect how other countries and international investors view the UK. This might influence trade deals, foreign investment, and the strength of the pound, potentially having ripple effects on global markets and economies.
