Episode description

Rishi Sunak has been accused of doing too little to help people struggling to feed their families and heat their homes, following Wednesday’s Spring Statement.

Laura and Chris are joined by economists Miatta Fahnbulleh, who has advised three prime ministers, and Rupert Harrison, who was George Osborne’s chief of staff, to chew over the chancellor’s announcement. Could he have done more? Should he have done more?

This edition of Newscast was made by Danny Wittenberg, John Murphy and Alix Pickles. The assistant editor was Alison Gee.
