Paul Salt

Available for over a year

Chancellor Rishi Sunak has cut fuel duty by 5p a litre until March next year and raised the threshold at which people will have to pay National Insurance by three thousand pounds to 12 thousand five hundred and seventy.

We've been speaking to people in Aintree to see how they are coping and speaking with Jay McKenna, the regional secretary for the TUC North West.
