00:00What we saw yesterday was a Halloween horror show.
00:03This was the biggest political heist in modern British history.
00:06£40 billion... Since John Major.
00:08..£40 billion of tax rises hurting people across this country.
00:13And just three months ago, the Labour Party won election
00:16on a pledge not to raise taxes.
00:18I'm afraid Rachel Reeves, who you've just interviewed,
00:20is acting like a compulsive liar.
00:23She said during the general election she wasn't going to raise taxes.
00:25She just has. She said she wasn't going to increase debt.
00:28She just massively increased debt.
00:31And then after the election, she invented that there was a black hole.
00:34The public will not trust this Labour government.
00:36They're making it up to justify immense tax rises.
00:39They're going to hurt the economy, hurt people's working lives.
