People who know their areas best should have more power to shape their future.
That's why this Budget is shifting power and funding out of Westminster and giving local leaders more control to drive growth in their communities.

No one should have to sleep rough, especially as winter approaches.
That's why we're doubling our investment, helping make sure people have a route off the streets – not just this winter, but for the years ahead.

Pubs, cafés, restaurants and shops are at the heart of our communities.
We’re giving them more breathing space, with 70,000 more retail, hospitality and leisure businesses paying no business rates from April 2027.

My Budget today will help families with the pressures they face now.
It will back businesses and entrepreneurs, invest in Britain's future, and strengthen our national security.
A plan to get through this moment and build a stronger Britain.

This is not true – this was money given to councils to allocate to projects of their choosing. There are very clear rules to make sure councils spend money impartially and there are powers to recoup money if it is found to have been mis-spent. Our response mhclgmedia.blog.gov.uk/2026/…
Angela Rayner’s department spent public money on Left-wing propaganda seeking to prevent a Reform or Tory government.
Publicly funded material seen by The Telegraph was handed to council staff, offering instructions for steering local voters away from Nigel Farage as well as the “Tory-Right”.
Find out how the money was spent ⬇️

On Sunday, I joined members of the Jewish community to remember the victims of the horrific October 7 terrorist attack.
Three years on, we hold in our thoughts all those still carrying the pain caused by that day. We stand with Jewish communities today and every day.

A year on from the tragic Heaton Park Synagogue attack, we continue to remember Adrian Daulby & Melvin Cravitz, and keep their loved ones, survivors and the community in our thoughts.
Their memory strengthens our resolve to tackle antisemitism & build a future free from hate.

Overnight visitor levies are already used in destinations around the world, but what do mayors think about bringing one to their areas?
Here’s what they had to say 👇

Visitor levies are used in many great cities across the globe to improve the visitor offer.
A modest levy here would give us more money to support our visitor economy, while helping our businesses and communities to benefit from its continued growth.
🚨NEW: The government has announced that mayors will be handed the power to introduce an Overnight Visitor Levy.
A modest levy could raise £18m a year for the Liverpool City Region - and be directly reinvested back into the things that make our visitor economy such a success.

I joined fellow UK Mayors at Number 10 North to discuss:
🛏️ A visitor levy to reinvest in our places
🎓 More powers to improve skills and education for 16-19 year olds
🚃 Faster delivery of major infrastructure projects
More power out of Westminster. More delivery closer to home.
