Debt worries climb in Britain and Australia
Original: debt
Government and household debt are dominating financial news. Britain's national debt has topped £3 trillion, prompting debate over borrowing and spending. In Australia, Victorian business and sport leaders are urging the state government to set out a plan as its debt promises pile up, while a helpline reports rising calls about tax debt as workers fall behind on payments.
Why now: Rising public and household debt figures were published at the same time in multiple countries, fuelling concern about budgets and cost-of-living pressure.
