Update: 2025-11-28
Description
Public sector workers and benefit recipients have seen more significant financial improvements than private sector employees since the last general election, with public sector pay growing at double the rate of private sector wages. Meanwhile, social benefits spending has surged by nearly ten percent, while private sector pay has only risen by just over five percent. Rachel Reeves budget, which included tax increases, has sparked criticism, with some arguing that private sector taxpayers are not benefiting from these economic changes. The situation raises questions about long-term economic strategies and their impact on different segments of the population.
