The UK Spending Review and Budget on October 27th mark a pivot point for this government, with the Treasury hoping to re-assert control of spiralling pandemic spending and the government aiming to show progress on their policy priorities as set out in the 2019 manifesto.Alex Dawson, Rebecca Park, Joe Armitage and Lilah Howson-Smith unpack the ‘red box’ and what its contents means for businesses. They focus on the Chancellor’s emerging approach to fiscal discipline; the decisions that were deferred on transport, levelling up and business rates; and the extent to which new net-zero ambitions are reflected in tax and spend measures.Speakers on this podcast: - Alex Dawson, Practice Lead, UK Politics and Policy.
