Budget Special live

The Budget is on and some amusing jokes in between is the main theme

'Wish me luck'

This is the last Spring Budget - with Chancellor Philip Hammond moving the set-piece event to the Autumn from this year onwards.

He points out that 24 years ago, former chancellor Norman Lamont made the same move.

"The then Prime Minister described it as the 'right budget, at the right time, from the right Chancellor'," Mr Hammond says.

"What they failed to remind me was…ten weeks later, he was sacked! So wish me luck!"

Mostly waffle at the moment.

More bull shit then Gideon with nearly an hour gone.
