YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAfter Jeremy Hunt’s autumn statement, the UK economy is looking “bloody miserable” – Rachel Cunliffe
Is there anything positive to say about the Chancellor’s economic plan?
Rachel Wearmouth and Freddie Hayward join Rachel Cunliffe to dissect Jeremy Hunt’s Autumn Statement that will leave Britain with the highest tax burden since World War Two. They discuss what to make of the OBR’s bleak forecast that living standards are set to collapse, and recap how we got to this point just 55 days after Kwasi Kwarteng’s ill-fated “mini budget”.
Why was Brexit not acknowledged as an economic impact in Hunt’s statement? Freddie Hayward argues that, as “the original Brexiteer”, Rishi Sunak doesn’t have a “coherent” reply to that question.
