Did the government really just cut your taxes?

Jeremy Hunt announced £20bn in personal and business tax cuts in his recent Autumn Statement. But to pay for that schools, hospitals and other public services won’t be protected from the rising cost of inflation. On top of that, forecasters predict economic growth will be weak and inflation will remain high over the next few years.

John Curtice and Rachel Wolf are joined by Torsten Bell who runs the Resolution Foundation think tank.
