The Capitalist

Spending Review: Health, Policing, and Reform’s Rise


Listen Later

With the Chancellor’s spending review looming, ministers are jostling for funds. But with public services under pressure and growth still sluggish, is the government backing the right bets? Plus: what’s really behind Reform UK’s rise in the polls? As support swells in areas hit hardest by poverty, our guests unpack the party’s shifting economic message — and what it reveals about voter discontent in Labour heartlands. CapX’s Marc Sidwell is joined by Maxwell Marlow of the Adam Smith Institute and Alys Denby from City AM for a brisk tour through the week’s economic flashpoints — and what they mean for Britain’s political future.
