Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng announced tens of billions of pounds of tax cuts in attempt to drive growth in the economy.
The top rate of income tax for the highest earners is being scrapped - something he believes will simply the system and make Britain more competitive.
Stamp duty has also been reduced for those buying homes.
