[Jeremy Hunt has announced the date
of 6 March for a spring budget,
fuelling speculation about an early
general election despite the Conservatives
trailing in the opinion polls.
With the government under pressure amid
the cost of living crisis,
the chancellor’s speech to
the Commons is widely seen as one of the
final opportunities to announce major
changes to tax and spending policy before
the next national vote.

Reports of scrapping inheritance tax
in budget ‘just speculation’, says No 10

Rishi Sunak has said he intends to
send Britons to the polls next year
but opinion is split on whether an
election is likely to come in the spring or
the autumn as the Tories battle to narrow
a commanding Labour lead.
Hunt is under pressure from his right
flank to announce a sweeping package
of tax cuts to tempt voters and bolster
Sunak’s chances, with speculation that
Downing Street is considering slashing
or even abolishing inheritance tax.]

Of course, he does have the Option
to have the General Election
no later than the
28th Tuesday January 2025.
A possible cold time.
