Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has announced a cut to National Insurance and abolished non-dom tax status in the Spring Budget.
A broad majority of voters have described the Tory party as broken, out of touch, and lacking in credibility, in a comprehensive new study that seems to foreshadow the reckoning that likely awaits Prime Minister Rishi Sunak at the next general election.
Exclusive: Almost three quarters of people believed Rishi Sunak's government has cut tax as a pre-election bribe for their vote, rather than because it feels it is the "right thing to do" for the country, in a major new opinion poll.
Labour leader Keir Starmer took aim at the continuing divisions in the Conservative Party at Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs), accusing Prime Minister Rishi Sunak of not being able to "stand up" to his own MPs.
A number of senior Conservative MPs are concerned that Government may not increase defence spending by enough ahead of the next election as a result of pressure from a significant wing of the party to prioritise further tax cuts in an attempt to win voters.
Many Conservative MPs will remember this "bleak" week as the moment when they truly gave up any hope of avoiding defeat to Labour at the next general election.
The "fictional" cuts to public spending that underpinned Jeremy Hunt's Spring Budget mean voters are not getting a true picture of the choices facing the next Government, experts have said.
Economic analysts have noted that Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has taken a different path from his predecessors such as David Cameron's chancellor George Osborne, with decisions in the Spring Budget that could leave workers better off, but pensioners worse off.
Economists and political scientists have suggested the Spring Budget package was so "small scale" it did not indicate the government was about to go to the polls.
