John Healey delivers his first Budget

The Chancellor promises to 'chart a new course for the years ahead'.

The Chancellor has delivered his first Budget promising to steer Britain through economic storms. In the Commons, he announced that 20 million households in England would receive a £100 payment towards energy bills. But the Conservative leader, Kemi Badenoch, accused him of delaying difficult decisions about issues such as defence. Also: At least 68 people have been killed and dozens more injured in a crash involving two high speed trains in central Spain. And passengers on a cruise around the world have been left stranded in Cambodia due to high fuel costs. (Image: EPA/Shutterstock)
