On the phone in Stephen Jardine asks – what did you make of the Autumn statement? Also on the show, gardening, CPR and litter picking.

PHONE-IN
Financial plans set out in the autumn statement are worth £1.5bn to Scotland, the chancellor has said.

Jeremy Hunt said the Scottish government would receive the funds over the next two years.

However First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said Scotland essentially had a flat budget because its value had shrunk by £1.7bn as a result of inflation.

Stephen asks – what did you make of the Autumn statement and what does it mean for you? We’ll also have experts on hand to offer money saving advice.
