I call the Chancellor of this shutter.

Madam Deputy Speaker,

Madam Deputy Speaker, it is my understanding that the Office of Budget

Responsibilities' Economic and Financial Outlook was released on their website before

this statement. This is deeply disappointing and a serious error on their part.

The Office of Budget Responsibility have already made a statement taking full

responsibility for their breach.

Madam Deputy Speaker, we are rebuilding our economy. Over the last 16 months, we have overhauled our planning system to get

Britain building, forged new trade deals with the United States, India and the European Union,

reformed our visa system to bring the brightest and the best to Britain.

We changed our fiscal rules that we inherited from the Conservatives and raised public

investment to its highest level in four decades.

And in last year's budget, I raised taxes on business and the wealthiest to close the 22 billion

pound in the public finances led by the party opposites.

And we used that money to fund the biggest ever settlement for our National Health Service.

They were the fair and necessary choices.

We faced opposition to them, from opponents to planning reform, who will always demand

that the future is built somewhere else, not in their backyard, opponents to trade, who want to take us down the

path of isolation and division. Opponents to investment, who believe that the only good

thing a government can do is get out of the way. Opponents who insist that the only way

to balance the books is to cut public spending. And opponents who say that we don't need to balance the books is to cut public spending.

And opponents who say that we don't need to balance the books at all.
