After weeks of speculation, she confirmed a series of targeted tax and spending measures designed to close a fiscal gap, manage inflation pressures, and support long-term economic growth.

The government has kept its pledge not to raise the main rates of income tax, VAT, or national insurance for working people. Instead, it has introduced a range of smaller but significant changes that will generate £26 billion in additional tax revenue by 2029/30 and create extra fiscal headroom.
