The Budget has finally been delivered and it was every bit as horrible as feared. Rachel Reeves has gone on a £30bn tax raid, punishing savers and landlords, all so that she can afford to cut the two-child benefit cap in a desperate bid to shore up the support from her back benches.
Camilla and Tim react to the day’s events outside Parliament with Conservative shadow chancellor Sir Mel Stride, who praises Kemi Badenoch’s evisceration of the Chancellor in the chamber and calls for her to go after breaking Labour’s manifesto pledge not to raise taxes.
Reform UK’s Danny Kruger also speaks to The Daily T, as does Labour backbencher Clive Lewis, who’s pledged to step down in his Norwich South seat so that Andy Burnham can challenge Keir Starmer for the leadership. Lewis says that he’s “not happy with the direction of travel” of his party and that Reeves’s fate is inextricably linked to Sir Keir Starmer’s.
