Healey Cuts Marmalade Tariffs, Bourne Gets Kidney

John Healey just cut a 20 percent tariff on imported marmalade and lifted a £19 per 100 kg charge. The pre-budget also drops import taxes on over a hundred household favourites, saving shoppers up to twenty-one pounds a year. Other fixes make the 55p-per-mile tax-free mileage rate permanent and let carers earn more without losing allowance. Meanwhile, guitarist James Bourne said his brother Chris donated a kidney after doctors warned he had a few years left. Both brothers are now recovering and thanked each other publicly on social media. Healey's tariff cuts aim to ease cost-of-living pressure, while Bourne's transplant story highlights the personal impact of organ donation. "We can't control global events, but we can act where we can make a difference," Healey said.
