The Autumn Statement saw Jeremy Hunt deliver a 2p cut to National Insurance as he outlined his plan for growth.

But it wasn’t long before it was pointed out that a continuing stealth tax raid and the downbeat projections of the Office for Budget Responsibility took the gloss of somewhat.

So, who are the Autumn Statement winners and losers, will investors want to take up an offer to buy NatWest shares, how are Isas changing, and is Britain turning a corner and set up for growth?

On this Lunch Money episode, Simon Lambert and Lee Boyce, of This is Money, and Victoria Scholar, of interactive investor, dig into the Autumn Statement and discuss what it means for you.

On the agenda:

  • How much will the NI cut save people? 
  • Will freezing income tax thresholds eat into that?
  • What did the OBR say?
  • How could a NatWest share sale work?
  • What’s happening to Isas?
  • The state pension triple lock
  • What tax cuts didn’t we get?
