Chancellor Jeremy Hunt unveiling his Autumn Statement yesterday (Nov 17), and while aspects of it may bring joy to some, there are a number of details set to bring misery to others. In hour-long speech to MPs in the Commons the politician laid out the government's plans to try take back control of the economy and the chaos caused by former Pm Liz Truss and ex-Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng.
As well as a stealthy tax rise on people's payslip and other spending cuts, Mr Hunt announced Brits will have to pay more-on their energy bills from April next year. Income and council tax are also set to increase - and all this is before you get into the fine print.
With the avalanche of information that emerged during Mr Hunt's Statement, some of the more miserable points have been harder to find that weren't included in the announcement. However, as reported by the Mirror, 16 hidden details have been uncovered that spell bad news for many.
