Hello there, welcome to newcastle, on the Dayjeremy Hunt delivered his budget, in what is almost certainly, a general election year. Were on the citys Iconic Quayside Overlooking the magnificent river tyne, an area steeped in industrial history, and weve been gauging reaction, to the chancellors plans. Among todays annoucements, the government is to cut National Insurance, by 2p in the pound for employees and the Self Employed. Full Child Benefits will be paid to households, where the highest earning parent, is getting up to £60,000. The current limit is £50,000. And, the non dom tax regime, for uk residents whose permanent home is overseas, is to be replaced with new rules, from april next year. Well, the office for budget responsibility, says the average tax payer, is going to pay more in the coming years. It predicts 37 pence of every pound will go in tax by 2029, which would be the highest level since 1948. While the government says public spending on some services will rise by 1
Good evening from newcastle, as the dust settles onjeremy hunts budget, quite possibly the last, before the general election. You join us on the citys Iconic Quayside Overlooking the magnificent river tyne, an area steeped in industrial history, and weve been gauging reaction here, to the chancellors plans throughout the day. Among his biggest annoucements, was a cut in National Insurance, by 2p in the pound, for employees and the Self Employed. Full Child Benefits will be paid to households, where the highest earning parent, is getting up to £60,000. The current limit is £50,000. And, the non dom tax regime, for uk residents whose permanent home is overseas, is to be replaced with new rules, from april next year. Well, the office for budget responsibility, says the overall tax burden, is actually set to reach its highest level for over 70 years. While the government says spending on Public Services will rise by 1 above inflation, some areas could still see cuts in the future. The 0b
Todays budget might have left you with a bit more money in your pocket but some of the Public Services you rely on will face big Spending Cuts. So is it a vote winner . Mr chancellor of the exchequer. Cheering it was the last Spring Budget before the next election. Tonight well interrogate Whyjeremy Hunt made the announcements he did. And interrrogate one of his treasury ministers. Overall, the tax burden is going up. Correct . The tax burden is still too high, overall. Absolutely. And its going up .

Todays was a budget that was as much about what comes next as about what comes now. Theres another 2p cut in National Insurance that will kick in soon but theres also the growing realisation that whoever wins the next election, they will face a daunting choice either oversee
Economy and help families with permanent tax breaks. Labour will argue that any reductions will still leave people worse off because of the freezing of Tax Thresholds. Ben king reports. The background to todays budget has been gloomy, with the economy in recession. But it looks like the chancellor will still find room to cut taxes. The conservatives are trailing labour in the polls, and looking Forjeremy Hunt to give them some cheer in places like this, winchester, a seat the Lib Dems Hope to win. So what do people here think about tax cuts . I think it would be a good idea because it gives people more money to spend on what they want to buy. Realistically, people arent going to save that much money from a tax cut, whereas more money in Public Services means Better Health care services. Itsjust much more important. I would prefer not to have a tax cut, but to see more money invested in the community. If the Public Services were properly organised, theres more than enough money to do it
