Sir Keir Starmer has hit back at Political Editor Christopher Hope after he presented him with a poll that showed GB News viewers feel “worse off” after Labour’s Budget.
Challenged with GB News polling showing the “overwhelming majority” of viewers believe the Budget has left them poorer and “ruined their Christmas”, the Prime Minister defended his Chancellor’s tax rises and spending choices.
The Prime Minister said: “Well, we have asked everybody to make a contribution to the necessary decisions and the fair decisions for our country.
“But what I can say to your viewers is that money is going to protect our NHS, which will be a huge concern of theirs, to make sure that when they and their families need it, I hope they don’t over Christmas, but when they do, that it is protected for them.”
