With the government still languishing far behind in the opinion polls and an election required before the end of January 2025, the Chancellor, Jeremy Hunt, is under more pressure than ever to pull something out of the bag at the Autumn Statement on Wednesday 22nd November. But the Chancellor will present his third (and possibly last!) fiscal event against a weak economic backdrop.
