Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has delivered the Spring Budget in the midst of a cost of living crisis and nis solution to fixing the UK’s current economic crisis is growth.
In a speech that lasted over an hour, Mr Hunt went on to set out the “four pillars of our industrial strategy”, which are “enterprise, employment, education and everywhere”. He shared details of how there will be the “biggest change to our welfare system in a decade”, with reforms aimed at supporting more disabled and unemployed into work by removing barriers preventing them from finding employment.
