5:18Now PlayingThe UK economy under Liz Truss was a “textbook case” of mismanagement, according to economist Duncan Weldon.
Economist Duncan Weldon and the New Statesman’s polling expert explore how Brexit and austerity have damaged the UK economy and set the stage for Liz Truss’s “mismanagement.”
A replacement for Liz Truss is expected to be chosen within the next week prior to Jeremy Hunt, the current Chancellor, laying out their economic plan. This plan would likely be a return to spending cuts. Walker argues that this attempt to implement “austerity 2.0” will not “go down well” with the public.
Whilst the Conservative leader may change, this video explores the underlying issues that will continue to damage the UK economy.
