Labour voters to follow Chancellor’s lead and tighten purse strings in 2025 as Budget fallout continues

LABOUR voters plan to follow Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ lead and tighten their purse strings in 2025, a poll shows.

As the fallout from her Budget continues, the most common New Year resolution from party supporters is to save cash.

Fifteen per cent want to economise, and 14 per cent learn a new skill.

Meanwhile, Tory voters are planning to get in shape — with 16 per cent hoping to lose weight and 15 per cent vowing to exercise more often.

Conleth Burns, who is the associate director of pollsters More in Common, stated that even though the Prime Minister has pledged a more prosperous 2025, Labour voters are intending to be more cautious with their spending, whereas Tory voters are focused on saving money.

“Either way, voters appear to be bracing themselves for a year of belt-tightening.”

It comes as health secretary Wes Streeting told pensioners to “layer up and put the heating on” this weekend as temperatures plunge.

He faced a grilling for Labour’s decision to axe universal winter fuel payments.

Age UK campaigners have cautioned that 2.5 million less privileged individuals, who are in need of financial assistance but have not received it, may have to resort to taking on debt rather than sacrificing their comfort by refraining from using heating.
