Whatever became of the moment
when one first knew about death? There must have been one, a moment, in childhood, when it first occurred to you that you don't go on forever.

Reflecting on this. It was a a busy week but I was wrong about this - no major reforms to stamp duty, income tax rates, tax cliff edges. Biggest tax increases delayed rather than immediate. Huh.
I really do expect that this could be the most significant Budget I’ve ever covered, for a few different reasons (contents of, politics around, societal challenges). It’s going to be quite a week I think.
Covering the Stephen Nolan show on 5 Live tonight (9-12) and then it’s Budget weeeeeek! I feel SO ALIVE

@felicityhannah.bsky.social listening to #WakeUpToMoney this am - Yorkshire Lad is onto something! I spotted my hotel running an “autumn sale” after I’d booked a weekend away. I’d missed the cancellation window by 48hours, so couldn’t rebook. But I 📞 them + they applied the discount! 🙏Always ask.

It’s me on #wakeuptomoney tomo (part of my attempt to be on air at every time of day in a single 5 Live week). And it’s pretty blinking obvious what I want to know from you: your thoughts on the Budget now the dust has settled AND… are you ‘celebrating’ Black Friday with some bargains?
