Chancellor Jeremy Hunt outlined a targeted package of support alongside measures to get debt and government borrowing down in his autumn statement today. The plan he set out is designed to fight inflation.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt said: "There is a global energy crisis, a global inflation crisis and a global economic crisis. But today with this plan for stability, growth and public services, we will face into the storm. We do so today with British resilience and British compassion.
"Because of the difficult decisions we take in our plan, we strengthen our public finances, bring down inflation and protect jobs."
