So the question for Hunt is that, other than delaying tax cuts, what is at the heart of this “doughnut” mini-Budget except a large hole of unfulfilled expectations?
But the pledge of training fighter pilots, with the implicit guarantee that actual fighter jets might follow, unleashes– and sometimes ire-spiked interventions – from present and recent heads of the armed services. They worry that the UK is “well over its skis” as one such figure puts it, in pledging help without the backing of resources.
Let’s say Hunt is persuaded by this argument. That would eat into a contingency the Treasury has prospectively put aside to end a wave of strikes, especially in the NHS. Agreement here is in sight, but will require some flexibility from the Government to pull it off and grant the PM a rare breakthrough.
When that attempt bit the dust, Sunak duly opened himself to an increasingly tetchy debate about how he and his Chancellor can get more than 8 million economically inactive people of working age into jobs, without offering more help on the home front. As with many areas of neglect, the problems for a government that is saddled with past omissions is that it is hitting, as one minister familiar with the wrangle puts it, “peak general annoyance”.
