if I was Rachel Reeves I'd be tempted to do what needs doing, grasp every nettle, Budget for the ages etc & resign at the end with a flourish, before buggering off to have a nice life & in 20 years people will say I did the right thing. This is why I am not chancellor (Rachel won't do this)

An aside: there is *zero* representation of EU migrants in those advertisements (or in British soap operas, TV dramas or feature films), something which has long puzzled, but not surprised me. We are the invisibles. Now why should that be, when there are millions of us here?

In other words, it was obvious before the election. Holding back enabled Hunt to push through tax cuts that were simply unaffordable. Which explain half our immediate fiscal problems
