Labour's £30BN Boost: Stability or Political Collapse? | MoneyMagpie Invest x Helen Thomas

Rachel Reeves has just received what looks like good news — a £30 billion boost to the public finances. But is this really a turning point for Labour, or just a temporary reprieve? In this episode, I’m joined by Helen Thomas, founder of Blonde Money, to unpack the Spring Forecast, Labour’s growing internal fractures, the risk building in the gilt market, and what investors should actually be doing in a higher-inflation world. We discuss UK debt, refinancing risk, the Gorton & Denton by-election, and whether this government can realistically survive a full term.
