Reaction to Rishi Sunak’s spring statement adorned most of the nation’s front pages this morning.

A snap poll carried out by Opinium showed that the public do not think the measures announced by the chancellor go far enough to help their personal financial situation or help tackle the rising cost of living.

Just 27 per cent think that the announcements will have a positive effect on their personal finances overall, with 21 per cent believing they’ll have a negative effect.

Meanwhile, two-thirds (65 per cent) think the government should be doing more to tackle the cost of living situation, with just 22 per cent thinking they are doing all they reasonably can.

Metro lead with Mr Sunak’s pledge to cut tax and fuel duty, while the Daily Mail and Daily Express carry calls for the Chancellor to do more to help the nation’s “forgotten millions”.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
