Rachel Reeves has been forced to defend herself against claims she misled voters by talking up the scale of the fiscal challenge in the run-up to last week’s Budget, in which she announced £26billion worth of tax rises.
She said an Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) forecast showing a £4.2billion surplus against her borrowing rules did not take into account the welfare reform U-turn or the abolition of the two-child benefit cap.
But the Chancellor is facing pressure from members of the Cabinet, Labour backbenchers, and politicians from across the aisle.
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has even written to the Government's independent adviser on standards demanding an investigation as to whether Mrs Reeves's claims were a breach of the Ministerial Code - a breach is often considered a resigning matter.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has continued to give his backing to his colleague.
So, do you think the Chancellor will survive? Vote in our poll above.
