Westminster Watch – Labour's First Budget
The Labour government announced its first budget in 14 years and all eyes were on the Chancellor to see whether the party would stick to its key manifesto promises. Rachel Reeves set out a £40 billion tax rise - the highest ever announced in a budget - with many sceptical that her gamble will bring about the economic growth Labour have promised. Nick is joined by heavyweights from across the political spectrum who've been at the heart of the action: Shadow Secretary of State for Business and Trade Kevin Hollinrake, Labour MP Rupa Huq, former leader of the Liberal Democrats Vince Cable and Reform UK Deputy Chairman Richard Tice to get their reactions to Labour's first budget. Westminster Watch is broadcast out of London and presented by politician-turned-presenter Nick de Bois. From fierce debate to reflective thinking, Nick offers you the inside track on all the happenings inside the corridors of power in Westminster. Tune in every Friday at 20:30 GMT and throughout the week on TRT World. You can also watch all previous episodes on our TRT World page: https://www.trtworld.com/video/westminster-watch
