Who is actually affected?
The Treasury states that 84% of income tax payers will not be affected by this rise. This means the new tax rates primarily target those with significant rental income or substantial savings interest. Tax on wages from work remains unchanged, so your take-home pay from your job isn't directly impacted by this specific change.
