Attacks on the wealthy authors of ‘Austerity 2.0’ could backfire
Published:
Tim Bale, professor of politics at Queen Mary University of London, has written for the Financial Times on the Autumn Statement, likely pushback from Conservative colleagues, and the public's perception of Rishi Sunak and Jeremy Hunt's wealth.
He writes: "Labour would be wasting its firepower in mounting too crude an attack on the UK’s multi-millionaire Downing Street neighbours. But a more subtle attack on the authors of “Austerity 2.0” could prove useful for the party."
