What can we expect from the Budget and how big a threat are Labour's tax plans? This is Money Podcast

With this year’s Budget moved to Monday, 29 October, we bring you a pre-Budget special.
This is Money editor Simon Lambert, assistant editor Lee Boyce and host Georgie Frost debate the key areas that might feature in Chancellor Philip 'Spreadsheet' Hammond’s tax and spending review.
This includes housing, inheritance tax, pensions and a whole host more, as he tries to find £20billion down the back of the Treasury sofa for the promised NHS boost.
But this Budget has some extra spice, with both Brexit and a Labour party whose main policy idea seems to be to force another General Election, which it thinks it can win.
We discuss what the Government needs to focus on to stamp out the Labour challenge and just how the economy is looking ahead of Brexit.
One time Labour donor Lord Sugar is threatening to leave the country if Jeremy Corbyn comes into power, thanks – in large part – to its threat of a barrage of tax rises.
How big is the threat from Corbyn and co - and what can you do to protect your family from a potential overhaul of pensions, Isas, capital gains and even transferring wealth to a spouse?
Enjoy.
