It is interesting to note that Rishi Sunak's warnings about Truss' economics have come to pass. Unfortunately, I told you so gets you nowhere in politics. This morning the Chancellor has suddenly discovered listing mode, his ears now unblocked, and has decided to scrap the 45p top rate of tax. The damage has been done.
