JEREMY Hunt will today announce a boost to bars, pubs and Brits as he reveals duty freezes, tax cuts and benefit rises.
Boost for Working Brits
In today's Autumn Statement, the Chancellor is expected to use the country's improved borrowing numbers to announce a "personal tax cut" for working Brits, as well as a boost to the minimum wage to £11.44.
Turbo-Charging Economic Growth
This comes as the Treasury vowed to "turbo-charge economic growth in the UK, while cutting taxes and continuing to bring down inflation."
Cracking Down on Benefit Abusers
Meanwhile, Brits on benefits who can work but refuse to look for employment will be told they could face losing freebies.
Hunt's Optimistic Outlook
Mr Hunt will tell MPs at 12:30 in the House of Commons today: "After a global pandemic and energy crisis, we have taken difficult decisions to put our economy back on track. We have supported families with rising bills, cut borrowing and halved inflation. The economy has grown. Real incomes have risen. Our plan for the British economy is working."
