In this episode of the Negotiating Government podcast, David Gauke (Negotient Chair and former Chief Secretary to the Treasury) and John Hall (Negotient Associate and former senior Treasury official) dissect the central strategic choice facing Chancellor Rachel Reeves ahead of the upcoming Budget. They take an insider’s view of the budget-making process, from the months-long behind-the-scenes negotiations between the Treasury and the Office for Budget Responsibility, to the last-minute decisions that shape fiscal policy. Drawing on their experiences, Gauke and Hall offer actionable advice on how to engage with government, influence outcomes, and navigate the complex, often opaque, negotiation landscape.
