I dont think there is a specific date Kate, this is all I can find on the net

When you’ll be paid
If you’re entitled, you will get:

Ł301 paid during spring 2023 for most people
Ł300 paid during autumn 2023 for most people
Ł299 paid during spring 2024 for most people

It will be interesting to see what he sets out.

Good to see he's maybe woken up to what Labour have been on about for a good while now, re childcare costs.
Let's hope his finer detail on that can be effective for those who need it.

What he does announce today however is likely not to really impact on those now in more desperate situations due to the cost of living rising by ridiculous levels over just the last year.
Even apparently those who got the maximum of help are now struggling still.

So if he's now going to remove that help, things can only get worse for those already in a worrying financial state.
Because they are still stuck with around double or more in the last year, of just gas and electricity costs.

That's before they start on the greater increase of inflation on food prices.
Which is way far more than just 10/11%.

This is so wrong

BBC2HD & BBCnewsHD Both broadcasting

Politics Live starts with
3 BBC journalists

Pathetic

They have never done this before
Cheapskate bastards

A lot of hot air and fudging this last half hour.

Not much of real truth but hopefully some of his measures will have some effect.
That remains to be seen.

Not a fully appropriate budget really for this uncertain time.
If he goes on much longer he'll put me to sleep.
Which may be the only good thing from his load of hot air presentation.
