the UK&#8217;s Treasury department said ahead of the ministerial statement in the House of Commons.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Alongside Britain continuing its \u2018unwavering\u2019 support to Ukraine, he will add that a stronger economy is vital in responding to the threat of [Russian] President Putin and that freedom and democracy remain the best route to peace, prosperity, and happiness,&#8221; the Treasury said.<\/p>\n<p> The Budget statement will also set out the UK government&#8217;s plans to create a new culture of enterprise, with the private sector training, investing, and innovating more.<\/p>\n<p> The rise in the National Living Wage to GBP 9.50 per hour from April has already been announced, which is claimed will see people working full time on the National Living Wage will see a GBP 1,000 increase in their annual earnings.<\/p>\n<p> Despite pressures from within his own Conservative Party, Sunak has ruled out scrapping an increase announced to the National Insurance (NI) tax last year.<\/p>\n<p> According to a pre-statement release, his office said the Chancellor is expected to say: &#8220;We will confront this challenge to our values not just in the arms and resources we send to Ukraine but in strengthening our economy here at home.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content-10\" id=\"trade-3873368405\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- in_content_3_news -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2969612066\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p> &#8220;So when I talk about security, yes \u2013 I mean responding to the war in Ukraine. But I also mean the security of a faster growing economy. The security of more resilient public finances. And security for working families as we help with the cost of living.\u201d \t The Opposition Labour Party has criticised the minister ahead of the speech, branding him &#8220;the high-tax Chancellor&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p> However, Sunak has been insistent that his long-term goal is to keep taxes low.<\/p>\n<p> Speaking at the Conservatives\u2019 spring conference last weekend, he said: \u201cI made this very clear at the budget in the Autumn: that is done. We\u2019ve made the difficult decisions that we have to make. My priority going forward is to cut taxes.\u201d \t New official data released earlier this week shows the government is borrowing less than expected so far this year, which reportedly means an extra GBP 20 billion or so for the UK Treasury\u2019s pockets as the deficit remains low.<\/p>\n<p> This has been interpreted by experts to offer Sunak some leeway for targeted support measures for low-income households.
