UK September deficit hits £24.5bn on record debt interest, pressure on Healey budget
UK public borrowing reached £24.5bn in September, above expectations, driven by £10.9bn debt interest—the highest September figure on record. This fiscal deterioration narrows Chancellor John Healey's headroom ahead of his first budget, likely constraining fiscal stimulus and potentially pressuring gilt yields.
