London Tonight Tonight Wednesday 21st March

Hello!

Budget day today ... NO! Don't switch off! Don't snooze! We can make it fun and relevant, really we can! I shouldn't joke really because we all know how our dear Chancellor can affect our lives, and this year - as he gave his last ever budget speech - he didn't disappoint. There are all sorts of headlines that you'll be able to hear more about on the national news at 6.30 .. Cutting income tax by 2 p, for one ... But how about announcements that will affect London? There could be some tax horrors looming at a local level. A report was published today recommending some huge rises if you've got a valuable house - which, with the property market in overdrive at the moment - affects lots of us. Liz Wickham has been investigating.

Did you know that London is now the coolest city on earth? It's official .. The New York magazine says so! You're bound to have a view ... We speak to Londoners to see what they think.

Ronke's been to Cape Town to discover how football can change lives ... An amazing project run by Charlton Athletic and the Met police to help disadvantaged kids there, while John Bird, no stranger to hardship himself as the founder of the Big Issue magazine, tells us why he's going to stand for Mayor of London.

We've another of our reports about Slavery as we approach the 200th anniversary of the act that abolished the slave trade, and Tamzin's been to meet Jamelia.

Something for everyone, as usual ..

See you at 6.


Katie and Al.
