UK Prime Minister Burnham said the government’s upcoming budget, due Oct. 28, will be "challenging", marking a shift from his earlier growth-optimistic tone. Officials had planned a modest package focused on cost-of-living relief, lower business costs and devolution, but a deteriorating global backdrop—notably Middle East hostilities that have pushed energy prices higher—has raised inflation and gilt yields, increasing borrowing costs.
