Description

In a recent podcast episode, the prime minister expressed his support for Chancellor Rachel Reeves amidst accusations of misleading the public about the nations finances. Reeves had hinted at plans to increase income tax rates, but the Office for Budget Responsibility later clarified that higher wages would offset lower productivity forecasts. The Budget included £26 billion in tax rises, with no increase in income tax rates. Other topics discussed include changes to farmers inheritance taxes, a collapsed China spy trial, and an impending resident doctors strike.
