On the morning after the Budget, James Wild MP spoke to BBC Radio Norfolk to set out his concerns for the Chancellor’s damaging economic policies.

He warned about the impact of raising taxes by a further £26 billion, freezing income tax thresholds that will push thousands into higher rates in order to pay for more welfare spending. He highlighted how this approach has already, and will continue to lead to higher unemployment, weaker growth, and reduced investment, while hitting working families in the pocket.
