The NS Podcast #140: Budget Special

This week, Helen, Stephen and George discuss Osborne’s latest budget. Listen in to find out what cola-glugging Stephen Bush thinks about the sugar tax, what George Eaton’s thoughts are on academies, and why Helen Lewis is outraged about disability allowance cuts. You also ask us: can local authorities handle increased devolution? (Helen Lewis, Stephen Bush, George Eaton)
