I've not read about this fully yet, but it looks like the 'black hole' was either greatly exaggerated, or, completely invented by Reeves so she could justify breaking their manifesto commitments to not raise tax (which they've done twice in a row and inevitably more to come).. WTF
Seems like it was more to do with raising benefits, as directed by her party. She’s shafted millions of working people for the sake of her own political survival. Nice.

OBR fucks up and publishes budget early - OH MY GOD RACHEL REEVES MUST GO!

OBR decide black hole isn’t as bad as feared - OH MY GOD RACHEL REEVES MUST GO!

Tory scams £120m from the public and gets rewarded with peerage - OH MY GOD RACHEL REEVES MUST GO!

Mr Blobby back at the top of the charts for xmas No1 - OH MY GOD RACHEL REEVES MUST GO!

It’s getting a bit dull now, we get it, the editors of every Tory newspaper have the same thing on a postit note above their screen:

Any story - OH MY GOD RACHEL REEVES MUST GO!

Who was calling for her resignation due to the OBR releasing the budget early?

Until the OBR admitted it was their fault, I saw plenty of that on social media. And still after they admitted it was their fault. I was off sick so I had the time to doomscroll that morning.

I'm just looking at published articles from the day of the budget and not finding anything that calls for her resignation. All the fury appears to be directed at the OBR itself.

The point of the 'black hole not being as bad as feared' is a massive misrepresentation of the situation. She's being accused of falsifying it entirely and actually had a surplus.

Is that Tory propaganda (despite being reported by all outlets) or burying your head in the sand making excuses?
