The chancellor is refusing to rule out further tax rises in the next five years - after announcing 40-billion pounds' worth of hikes in her budget - the biggest since 1993.
Rachel Reeves is promising to "rebuild Britain" - with more than half of the increases coming from higher national insurance contributions by employers.
Labour MP for Aylesbury - Laura Kyrke-Smith - has given her reaction to the budget:
A large sum will come from a 25-billion pound hike in employers' national insurance contributions - going up by 1-point-2 percentage points from April.
The Chancellor also announced more money for the NHS, schools, roads and investment in housing.
The MP said she was especially pleased to hear about the investment in education:
