CGT only applies to the shares you SELL outside of an ISA and after you have calculated any other dispoals that tax year ie possible losses and more gains and then you use your Cap gains Allowance £12,300 and then you can use losses from previous years too,( needs looking into) but after all those measures the rate of tax is 10%for basic rate tax payers and 20% for higher. this is as understand it of course.
dividend tax is 7.5% on income over £12.500 +2,000 dividend allwance , them jumps to 32.5% for higher rate.
