THE UK government is expected to cut taxes and increase infrastructure spending to back up the Bank of England's (BOE) £170 billion (S$300 billion) monetary bazooka.
The Keynesian reversal of George Osborne's austerity campaign, which is aimed at achieving a budget surplus, is forecast to be announced when Philip Hammond, the new Chancellor of the Exchequer, presents his "Autumn Statement".
