The Chancellor Rachel Reeves delivered her Spring Statement this week - a speech that the government hoped beforehand would be a non-event with no new policy announcements. But has the war in the Middle East cast doubts and uncertainty over the future of this government’s fiscal aspirations?

In this episode, Which? Money’s Matthew Jenkin joins us to talk through the biggest headlines from the Chancellor’s speech and how the economic forecasts could impact your own day-to-day spending.

Plus, Frances Haque, Santander’s chief economist analyses whether or not the government’s spending plans could be scuppered as a result of the knock-on impact of heightened tensions in the Middle East.

Whether or not you shop at Tesco, you’ll probably know about its Clubcard membership scheme. In recent years, the programme has given users access to lower prices - that is if you’re aged 18 or over. We think that’s wrong.

In this episode, Which? senior researcher Ellie Simmonds joins us to analyse the news that, after years of our campaigning, Tesco is looking to remove the age restriction that has barred under-18s from accessing loyalty prices. We’ve twice withheld Which? Recommended Provider status from Tesco over this issue.

Plus, our annual survey of the best and worst supermarkets has just dropped, so we reveal who the winners and losers are for in-store and online shopping.

The principle behind the state pension is simple: that most people will get a regular payment from the government to help fund their retirement once they reach a certain age. But the decisions that need to be made about its future are more complicated.

In the third episode of our four-part podcast series, we look at what determines the amount of state pension you get and how you could boost your payments - plus how the growing cost to the government could change the way the system works in future.

Which? Money editor Jenny Ross is joined by experts from across the industry, as well as people at different stages of retirement planning.

The final episode in the series will be released next Monday.
