The report has been updated this morning as the pound has fallen further.

You nearly have to admire Mel Stride for his cheek in saying "We should be building a more resilient economy, not raising taxes to pay for fiscal incompetence" were it not for the memory of the fuck up the Torirs made of the economy, and that a resilient economy wouldn't be this screwed by Labour's budget.
