The Chancellor said 700,000 households will benefit as he announced a doubling of the threshold at which people pay the child benefit tax charge, from £60,000 to £120,000.

Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves is coming under mounting pressure from party frontbenchers to raise capital gains tax in her first autumn budget if Labour wins the General Election next month.
She is also mulling over up to 12 new revenue-raising measures, it was said yesterday.
