Full pre-budget report explains why the UK rejected calls for game tax breaks
Of the 216 pages in the pre-budget report, the UK games sector was only mentioned once.
That citation can be found below, republished verbatim:
"The creative industries, including the video games industry, make a valuable economic and cultural contribution to the UK. The Government committed in Digital Britain to work with the video games industry to collect and review the evidence for the introduction of a tax incentive to promote the development of culturally British video games.
"While recognising the challenges currently faced by the sector in competing internationally, the Government is not currently persuaded that the evidence is sufficiently compelling to justify the introduction of a tax incentive for the development of culturally British video games at this time.

That explains nothing.
Yeah, all that explains is that Tiga's evidence didn't sway them. Why aren't they honest about the whole thing!
Mego, did you just use the word "honest" while referring to the words of a politician?
again Britain leaves the future of the industry to the rest of the world. rubbish.
Would the last game developer to leave the country please turn off the lights.
