00:00It does feel like it's clearly an unprecedented step for the Chancellor to make a speech just

00:05in the run-up to the budget. It was an extraordinary speech. She's been trying to blame everybody

00:11else for the situation that she's put the country in and the mistakes that she's made

00:15on the economy. It does feel like she might be rolling the pitch to break a manifesto

00:20promise, which again is extraordinary. This is a government that said when they got elected
