Today, we’re zooming out to ask: what are the biggest economic challenges facing the UK in the years ahead?
As Paul Johnson hosts his final episode before stepping down as IFS director, he’s joined by incoming director Helen Miller to reflect on the country’s fiscal outlook, the importance of economic growth, and the pressures of an ageing population.
With rising demands on public services, debates over tax policy, and uncertainty around fiscal rules, how should policymakers navigate the road ahead? What choices will the government face to deliver sustainable growth?
Paul and Helen discuss these big-picture questions - and what the coming years might hold.
