00:00I don't think, I don't think the black hole is reliable because the Institute of

00:36post-budget special and he invited her to Rachel Rees to come and debate but

00:42she was too busy doing the morning breakfast shows and all that kind of

00:44malarkey and I think that she would never debate with Martin Lewis because

00:48he's all over the numbers like a rash, so if she says that pensioners are

00:53protected, most pensioners are protected, and he said well they're not, I believe him.
