We could have introduced a windfall tax on the big banks, ended the Brexit barriers hurting our trade by securing a new Customs Union with Europe, and properly funded social care. That’s how we could really boost growth, support business, and give people hope.

There was also an opportunity today to fix the £90 billion Brexit black hole and unlock real economic growth with Europe. Instead, they delivered a Budget that goes after struggling families and local employers while letting the big banks and tech giants off the hook.

Today the Government had the opportunity to end the cost of living crisis, get Britain growing again and repair the £90bn Brexit black hole - by fixing our trade with Europe.

This Government has chosen to reject the single biggest thing it could do to turbocharge economic growth and repair the £90 billion Brexit black hole.
For millions of people struggling with higher bills this was a botched budget.

I wish I was surprised. Buried in this Budget is a plan to slash the Digital Services Tax, giving a multi-billion tax cut to US tech giants and the likes of Elon Musk.
That's right, cutting taxes for the world's richest man while hiking them for millions of hard-working Brits.

Last week the Senedd showed what grown-up politics looks like - with a respectful, 2hr debate on taxing extreme wealth and what that can mean for Wales.
It’s now time Westminster steps up to this long-overdue conversation, whatever tomorrow’s Budget brings.

Remember when they said Brexit would save us £350m a week?
Well, it has actually cost us £250m a day this year.
And that goes a long way to explaining why our taxes are high why productivity low.
It’s never been clearer that the key to growth is fixing our relationship with Europe.
