Rachel Reeves says tax rises and spending cuts on the cards as she blames Brexit

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

55% : "Of course, we're looking at tax and spending as well, but the numbers will always add up with me as chancellor because we saw just three years ago what happens when a government, where the Conservatives, lost control of the public finances: inflation and interest rates went through the roof.
55% : " The chancellor said: "Austerity, Brexit, and the ongoing impact of Liz Truss's mini-budget, all of those things have weighed heavily on the UK economy.
54% : "Already, people thought that the UK economy would be 4% smaller because of Brexit.
50% : "Now, of course, we are undoing some of that damage by the deal that we did with the EU earlier this year on food and farming, goods moving between us and the continent, on energy and electricity trading, on an ambitious youth mobility scheme, but there is no doubting that the impact of Brexit is severe and long-lasting."
