And what I want to do today is to cover the broader issues for you, the general investor on all things.

And what we know now in the second week after the budget, the smoke is clear to a considerable degree.

There's a lot more we know now than we did yesterday.

a few days ago.

My guest is Liam Shaw from the Sonus Wealth Group.

How are you, Liam?

Hi, James.

Doing fine.

Thank you.

Good to have you on the show as always.

It's a hell of a budget and I've been looking at all the various notes that people have put out and I looked at the notes you put out, of course.

And I suppose we need to stand back for a moment from the sort of headlines and the surprises, you know, what is real in here, what's concealed in here, but also what matters most.

Stand back for a moment and say what really matters.

And I think...

is capital gains tax is what really matters.

In that it affects everybody, every investor, whatever they do, almost.

It's inescapable.

And it's about to become a higher tax for everybody.

I think that's really the big one.

What's your view on that one, Liam, on CGT and what investors should know?
