Jeremy Hunt will deliver his first autumn budget as Chancellor today (November 17).
It’s also the first budget since Rishi Sunak took over as Prime Minister in October.
The autumn budget comes following Kwasi Kwarteng’s disastrous mini-budget which lead to the country being plunged into financial turmoil.
What is going to be in the autumn statement?

The autumn statement will mark an abrupt about-turn on Kwasi Kwarteng’s disastrous mini-budget, which plunged the country into financial turmoil, as Rishi Sunak hopes to reassure the markets and steady the country’s finances.
