Could the Budget help turn Generation Z into generation debt?
Chancellor Rachel Reeves' Budget aims to address the national debt to prevent future economic strains, potentially impacting Generation Z's financial interests. Younger generations face challenges such as benefit cuts, high university fees, and limited homeownership opportunities. With concerns that current policies favor older demographics, including the state pension triple lock, there are worries about increased taxes and debt for younger individuals. The Budget's focus on managing national debt could help highlight generational disparities in public spending and highlight the impact on future taxpayers.
