Budget Summary: Key points from the Chancellor’s speech and what it means for your finances

Welcome back to 'The It's Good To Talk (about money) Podcast' with your hosts, Hannah and Laura. This month we'll dive into the implications of Jeremy Hunt's Budget for your finances, and unravel the potential impact of the changes.

We'll also dissect Nationwide's ambitious bid to acquire Virgin Money, shedding light on how this potential merger could reshape the banking landscape.

Ever wondered how inflation is calculated? We'll break down the methodology behind it and explore why items like Vinyl Records and Air Fryers have found their way into this year's basket of goods while hand sanitiser is out.

And speaking of changes in prices, brace yourselves for the upcoming hike in stamp prices set to take effect next month. We'll discuss how this increase might affect consumer behaviour and might even get sidetracked by discussing the potential mishaps with delivery drones. Tune in now for all this and more on the 'It's Good To Talk (about money) Podcast'!"
