YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

As Chancellor Rachel Reeves prepares for a tough Budget, her new narrative is to blame Brexit. In the latest episode of the Political Currency podcast, former Chancellor George Osborne and former Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls examine whether this 'Brexit blame game' is a smart political strategy or a 'backward-looking excuse' that voters won't buy. The pair debate the risks of Labour's new economic story and ask if it's already 'too late' for the party to build a compelling narrative.
