Video insights

@antonia_investing's TikTok video "£1.60 a week. That’s what the “cost of living government” is worth to a typical household so far. Since July, Andy Burnham has taken VAT off electricity bills (about £45 a year, guaranteed until March), announced a £2 bus fare cap from January, put Fuel Finder petrol prices on Google Maps (about £40 a year if you shop around) and brought forward rules on subscription traps. For a household that drives but doesn’t use the bus, that’s roughly £85 a year. Over the same period, the energy price cap rose £60 a year, even with the VAT cut included, and forecasters expect a bigger rise in January. Burnham has called these “small” measures, with bigger plans to come. The Budget on 28 October is where that gets tested. This is general information, not financial advice. Meaningful help or political tinkering? Where do you stand?
