Chancellor Rachel Reeves will make history as the first female chancellor to present the UK Budget on Wednesday (30 October).
Ms Reeves has repeatedly warned the Budget will involve “difficult decisions”, blaming the last Conservative government for leaving a £22bn black hole in the public finances.
