2024 Autumn Budget - the political reaction

October 30 2024

Addressing the House of Commons, Chancellor Rachel Reeves used the 2024 Autumn Budget to 'fix the foundations to deliver on the promise of change'.

Ms Reeves continued: 'This government was given a mandate. To restore stability to our economy, to fix the foundations and deliver change. That is our task, and I know that we can achieve it. My belief in Britain burns brighter than ever.'

Responding to the Chancellor's speech, Conservative Party Acting Leader Rishi Sunak said that the Autumn Budget 'contains broken promise after broken promise'.

He continued: 'The Budget sees the fiscal rules fiddled, borrowing increased by billions of pounds and inflation-busting handouts for the trade unions.

'This is what happens when the Labour Party is led by people who have no experience of business. Relentlessly talking down our economy, delivering a tidal wave of anti-business regulations, destroying our flexible labour market and raising taxes to the highest level in our country's history.'

Meanwhile, Carla Denyer, Co-leader of the Green Party, said that the Chancellor delivered 'a Budget that gives with one hand and takes away with the other'.
