## Summary

Reform UK has promised to make £80 billion in savings by 2030, presenting 64 measures in what it called an alternative budget. Economics spokesperson Robert Jenrick said the party would cut £40 billion in its first year in government and £80 billion by its fifth, arguing the plans would support growth and jobs as the UK’s debt passed £3 trillion.

The proposals include approving Rosebank oil field drilling, reviewing AI regulation, fast-tracking reservoirs and ending taxpayer support for the lowest-performing fifth of degree courses by economic contribution. Reform also restated plans for a permanent 5p fuel duty cut, £250 energy bill reductions, repeal of Labour’s Employment Rights Act and a £150,000 VAT threshold; Labour and the Conservatives criticised the event’s low attendance and challenged the party’s credibility.
