Is Rachel Reeves on borrowed time?

The Daily T

About this episode

Labour promised growth. Can it deliver?


The Chancellor has flown back from China to financial markets in turmoil, with the cost of long-term Government borrowing hitting fresh highs and a sharp slump in the pound.


Kamal and Camilla assess whether Rachel Reeves will have to increase taxes, borrow even more money, or make drastic cuts to public spending in order to steady the ship - and whether she’ll even survive in the role for much longer.


Plus - potholes! As The Telegraph launches its 'Fix Our Potholes' campaign, Camilla takes Kamal on a drive around rural Hertfordshire to see first-hand just how bad the problem is. They also speak to Mark Morrell - a man known as Mr Pothole - whose relentless campaigning has seen over 10,000 potholes get filled in.
