Spring Statement Simplified – What You Need to Know

Here’s a quick flavour of what you’ll learn:

  • Why inflation is (finally) moving in the right direction
  • The impact of higher-for-longer interest rates
  • What Rachel Reeves’ defence spending plans mean for the public purse
  • Why the government’s debt level could affect your mortgage or savings
