FINANCE expert Martin Lewis has slammed a UK Government tweet which claimed first time buyers in London could save over £12,000 as “nonsense”.
In a tweet published by the Treasury on September 29, the Government claimed that thanks to cuts to stamp duty and measures on energy bills “a typical first time buyer in London moving into a representative terraced house” would save £12,700.
However, after crunching the numbers the money saving expert tweeted to say that he has asked the Treasury to remove the post.
