Tax and Spend

By Channel 4 News

The Chancellor this week declared "austerity was coming to an end". But how significant were this week's Budget announcements? Gary Gibbon talks the politics of 'Tax and Spend' with two former senior Treasury advisers who between them worked on dozens of fiscal events. Rupert Harrison was formerly Chief of Staff to George Osborne when he was Chancellor, while Torsten Bell was former Chief of Staff to Labour's Ed Miliband.

A new episode of Politics: Where Next? is released every Friday.

Producer: Sarah Gough
