Can Labour make Britain bigger and make us richer? This is the Money podcast


Please, let everything change. In a radical reshuffle of the political landscape, Britain has elected a Labour government for the first time in 14 years.

New Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Chancellor Rachel Reeves have made bold promises of recovery, growth and wealth creation.

But many fear Britain’s troubled public finances also mean promises not to raise taxes will prove hollow.

So what has Labour said it will do, what important things have they left unsaid, what will it mean for the economy and its finances, and is there a path to prosperity that does not involve further fiscal pain?

In this special election podcast, Georgie Frost, Helen Crane, Lee Boyce and Simon Lambert discuss what a Labour election victory could mean for our money.

The team analyses the manifesto’s promises on the economy and growth and the strength of the “no tax increases” pledges.

Can Labour’s house-building plans and planning shake-up deliver more housing? What other plans does it have to boost growth?

The team also looks at the 14 years the Conservatives have been in charge of the economy and what positives can be drawn from the turmoil.

And finally, what can we be optimistic about as we move into the next chapter of British life?
