What is an alternative Budget?

An alternative Budget, like Reform UK's, is a document outlining a party's spending and tax priorities if they were in power. It's a political statement, not a formal government proposal, and doesn't require parliamentary approval. It's designed to showcase their economic vision and challenge the government's plans.
