Rachel Reeves issues final message ahead of historic autumn Budget | News

Rachel Reeves issued a final message before Labour’s first Budget in 14 years was presented to the public on Wednesday, 30 October.

In a video posted to her social media pages, the chancellor described how she “likes graphs and spreadsheets” and has been “poring over the detail” of the government’s upcoming economic announcements.

Labour vowed not to raise taxes on “working people” in the days before the Budget announcement.

However, other rumoured tax rises led critics to question who falls under Labour’s definition of “working.”

The prime minister said the UK’s working people “know exactly who they are.”
