24th Nov 2017: Box Office Phil’s Budget Bonanza
Chancellor Philip Hammond’s Budget was well-received by Conservative MPs on Wednesday, despite being made against a backdrop of gloomy economic forecasts. Opponents said that few of his announcements went far enough on issues like stamp duty, house-building and universal credit. But did he do enough to steady the ship of a government that has recently seemed to be increasingly in turmoil? Plus we’re discussing the fall of Robert Mugabe, a worrying new report about graduates’ job prospects, and asking whether using gender-neutral terms to address schoolkids is a step too far. It’s all coming up on this week’s Update The State podcast!
