The choices made by successive Tory governments have left British families exposed during the cost-of-living crisis. Their decisions have left our public services and our economy weaker and businesses reluctant to invest.

The UK economy has been hit by recession, but Rishi Sunak continues to claim that we have turned a corner, promising £46 billion worth of unfunded spending commitments. This is exactly what caused the economy to crash under Liz Truss’s 45 day premiership. It’s clear they haven’t learnt a single thing since her disastrous mini-budget.

These commitments will either risk higher mortgages, cuts to the NHS or threaten the state pension as we know it. Rishi Sunak must come clean about how he will pay for the plan or set out whose taxes will have to go up.

No matter how the Tories try to spin this budget, it’s very clear that the biggest threat to the economy and family finances is five more years of Conservative chaos.
