The Chancellor continues to lay the ground for ultimately blaming the inevitable results of his disastrous handling of the economy on Brexit. Do we believe him ?

Leavers and Remainers unite - condemn austerity now, it failed to deliver what he promised.

Phillip Hammond has never been the most optimistic of Chancellors, but maybe that's part of his strategy. If you set low expectations, you're not going to disappoint!
not in London its not, our economy is booming according to last evenings news. I think its scaremongering on his part and he should be ashamed of himself for making such a point at this stage of negotiations with the electorate. MP's have a chance to chuck this deal out, but i wonder if they will?
If his lips move, I don’t believe him or his ilk.
The lack of getting behind our decision and getting on with it will give him challenges, but he's supposed to be up to the task. It's what he's there for, not to lie back and watch it all go perfectly anyway.

Austerity isn't a good deliberate choice anyway. Where businesses are wary it's government that needs to invest and boot the economy. (Not money print their way out.)
You say the Chancellors handling of the economy has been disastrous. I disagree. Disappointing perhaps, but not disastrous. The employment figures speak for themselves, and the UK economy remains strong. Brexit is bound to have a huge effect on the economy- it would be disingenuous to suggest otherwise.
"condemn austerity now, it failed to deliver what he promised. "

What austerity?

And that is the problem.

However wouldn't believe a singel word from this slime-balls mouth
Canary is on a mission today.
austerity goes back to Osborne, Hammond didn't introduce it, so I think it's too simple to blame it on Brexit, though it's undoubtedly playing a part.

(Those who doubt its existence might like to consider the drop in police numbers and the effect this has had on public safety.)
There must be austerity. All and sundry are cutting back on services and pleading for sufficient budget to do better.
