Dame Harriett Baldwin calls on the Chancellor of the Exchequer to accept that last October’s Budget has caused business confidence and growth prospects in this country’s economy to plunge.

Dame Harriett Baldwin (West Worcestershire) (Con)

It is good to see the Chancellor back from China and to hear her reiterate that growth is her No. 1 mission, because we have not had any growth since her Budget. Given that accepting responsibility is the first step in solving a problem, will she accept that last October’s Budget has caused business confidence and growth prospects in this country’s economy to plunge?
