The lights at 11 Downing Street, known as the official residence of the chancellor of the exchequer, are on early in central London on October 28, 2026, before Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer John Healey presents the government's annual budget to parliament later in the day. Healey will unveil his first budget on October 28 as he juggles commitments to defence spending and easing household bills with little financial room to manoeuvre.
