Sunak on Budget: Broken promise after broken promise

Leader of the Opposition Rishi Sunak has said the government's Budget contains "broken promise after broken promise".

He added that it is "proof" that Labour planned to "tax, borrow and spend far beyond" what they announced during the general election.

"Today's Budget sees the fiscal rules fiddled, borrowing increased by billions of pounds, inflation-busting handouts for the trade unions," Mr Sunak said.
