Chancellor Rachel Reeves plans to cut £2bn in costs by axing 10,000 civil service jobs, as reported in Politics News. Reeves is confident that these cuts, focused on back office roles, will free up resources for front line services. The spring statement will reveal these spending cuts, ruling out tax rises. However, the FDA union urges honesty about the impact on public services. Reeves acknowledges that the cuts will not be pain-free but emphasizes the need to prioritize better public services. The Chancellor aims to reduce administrative budgets by 10% initially, saving £1.5bn annually by 2028-29, with a further 15% reduction the following year, saving £2.2bn annually. Taxes will not be raised in the upcoming spring statement, as Reeves maintains fiscal rules against borrowing for day-to-day spending. Civil service departments will receive guidance from the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster to implement these changes.
