The leader of the opposition labelled the Budget 'disastrous' as she responded to Rachel Reeves

Kemi Badenoch responded to Rachel Reeves in the Commons today, labelling her Budget "disastrous".

The leader of the opposition blasted the Chancellor, and said that the second label Budget was "a total humiliation".


Mrs Reeves unveiled her Budget today, after an "unprecedented" leak from the OBR ahead of the statement being read to Parliament.

Mrs Badenoch said: "It's a total humiliation. Last year she put up taxes by £40billion, the biggest tax raid in British history.

"She promised that she wouldn't be back for more. She swore it was a one off. She told everyone that from now on it would be stability and she would pay for everything with growth.

"Today she has broken every single one of those policies. If she had any decency she would resign.

"At the last Budget she said she was proud to be the country's first ever female chancellor.

"After this Budget she will go down as the country's worst ever chancellor."

In her furious tirade, Mrs Badenoch added: "She said I'll be there on Wednesday.

"I'll be there next year and I'll be back the year after that. God help us. She is spineless, shameless and completely aimless."
