Research output: Non-textual formPodcast

Abstract

In our 100th podcast episode, FAI Director Mairi Spowage and Deputy Director João Sousa join economist Hannah Randolph to discuss what was announced in the UK budget statement and how it will affect Scotland. We also talk about whether OBR publications alongside the budget shed more light on the budgetary “black hole” left by the previous government, and whether or not this budget signals a significant change in UK fiscal policy.
