UK Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt has expressed his desire to lower taxes and reduce regulations in the UK, aiming to foster economic growth and enhance the country's competitiveness. Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Hunt highlighted the need for a "more lightly regulated, lower tax economy" to attract businesses and stimulate economic activity. He acknowledged the challenges posed by high taxes and regulatory burdens, which he believes deter investment.
