Inflation and the Budget - are things about to get better or worse?

This is Money Podcast

About

Inflation is back on the rise again and it is forecast to keep going up.

What does this mean for our finances and how bad are things going to get?

Meanwhile, the Budget is looming and while it's certainly been a much quieter build-up this year, can we be sure that there's no bad news lurking?

On this week's podcast Georgie Frost, Rachel Rickard Straus and Simon Lambert unpick what's going on and look at where we could end up next.

Plus, are we seeing rent controls by the back door, how often should you be winning the Premium Bonds and what are your Budget moans?
