UK to hold emergency budget in the autumn - junior interior minister

Britain will hold an emergency budget in the autumn and hopes a more strongly growing economy will allow it to pay for spending pledges, a junior interior minister said on Friday.

"The prime minister's also announced there's going to be an emergency budget in the autumn which will be designed to stimulate the economy and what you hope is that a more strongly growing economy will produce greater tax revenue which we can pay for some of the things that we want to do," Kit Malthouse told Sky News. The finance ministry was not available for immediate comment.
