Uk Finance Minister

Britain's finance minister on Friday dismissed "gloom" over its recession-threatened economy and vowed to tap into Brexit opportunities and tackle rampant inflation to boost growth during a cost-of-living crisis.

British finance minister Jeremy Hunt announced a string of tax increases and tighter public spending in a budget plan on Thursday that he said was needed after the blow dealt to the country's fiscal reputation by former prime minister Liz Truss.

New British finance minister Jeremy Hunt on Monday reversed nearly all of Prime Minister Liz Truss's mini-budget that had sparked market turmoil, and reined in a vast energy subsidy plan, saying the country needed to rebuild investor confidence.

The pound jumped more than one percent against the dollar Monday as Britain's fourth finance minister in as many months prepared to update on UK tax and spending plans that spooked markets in recent weeks.

Britain's new finance minister Jeremy Hunt will unveil tax and spending measures later Monday, bringing forward part of his fiscal plan to calm markets after a botched debt-fuelled budget.
