George Osborne – 2022 Comments on Government’s Emergency Statement

The comments made by George Osborne, the former Chancellor of the Exchequer, on Twitter on 17 October 2022.

Congrats to Jeremy Hunt for taking big bold steps to restore U.K. fiscal credibility – reversing most of mini budget & in effect raising income tax (from the 19p legislated by Johnson gov). Not sensible for PM to hide away – she needs to front this to have any chance of survival.
