2:19 pm
fiscal statement, a bit like a budget in which we set out the, the tax and spending plans for several years ahead. and that's going to be independent, verified by the office for budget responsibility. we've been honest that it was a mistake not to do that in the mini budget before. i'm not taking anything off the table. i want to keep as many of those tax cuts as i possibly can. because our long term health depends on being a low tax economy. i under simmons has more now from london. he's been brought in to try and sought out a mess. but he's been brought in by the person who's really made that mess. it wasn't any thing at all to, to, to get rid of a quasi quoting, it didn't affect the markets. the issue was decisions made by the prime minister in the 1st place. and what we're seeing now is the chancellor about reverse things. instead of actually cutting taxes or he's going to be raising some and in terms in
2:20 pm
terms of but making big spends, he's going to do the opposite. he's asking all government departments are to look at efficiency savings. and now jeremy hunt is at checkers the country retreat for british prime ministers. not much of a retreat for less trust right now. she apart from talking to her new chancellor and hearing what he plans to do, not so much what she had hoped to do. um, she'll be trying to work out how to survive because there are senior figures in the conservative party trying to work out a plan to make another person prime minister. there are several possibilities there and a way of doing it not to have an election, a not to have a leadership election either. or mo husayn is a former conservative party special adviser. he says the chancellor's actions should begin to calm the markets. is extremely chaotic. certainly here in the u. k
2:21 pm
. and the fact that jeremy on day one has upturned the prime minister's entire economic agenda. the promises that she made on the leadership campaign, i think will have gone some way, certainly to calming the markets. he spoke about slowing public spending, he talked about assessment independently made and some taxes going up as well in all of the things the market was wanted to see. but politically, there were a big, big challenges. the other audience here is m p 's and then also the voting public. the challenges politically, ah, this is the opposite really of what people who supported the prime minister were expecting her radical vision, her desire ease with being unpopular and challenging the orthodoxy. and we're not getting any of that. we are getting something that is very, very different. and i think that does not bode well going forward. i think it will certainly go some way because you're moving away from just unfunded commitments to
2:22 pm
