Why is everyone scared of the budget?

The News Agents

Tuesday, 29 October 2024 - 36 minutes

One day out from the budget we ask why The Chancellor appears to be frightening off the very people she needs to help flourish for economic growth.

Businesses and entrepreneurs are starting to feel uneasy with the budget plans they’re hearing. And they are wondering if Reeves has enough people around her who understand how to make the UK competitive. More in Common’s Luke Tryl joins us to talk about why voters are dreading the budget.

And, Lewis sneaks into Trump's speech at Mar-a-Lago. We'll hear from the bustle inside the ballroom.
