What has the Autumn Budget changed for households, public services and the public finances?
Helen Miller is joined by IFS economists Jonathan Cribb and Max Warner to unpack the announcements and the economic outlook. They discuss the support for households, changes to taxes and energy bills, and the Chancellor’s decision to accept higher borrowing.
With spending growth set to slow and difficult decisions left for next year’s Spending Review, how credible are the plans to bring borrowing down? And what does the Budget mean for living standards and the pressures facing public services?
