That is possible.<\/p>\n<p>What is very probable is that the price of government bonds, gilts, will fall tomorrow morning, sending borrowing costs soaring, which is a dreadful precursor to Reeves\u2019s looming tax-raising budget.<\/p>\n<p>This would be farcical if the potential economic damage weren\u2019t real.<\/p>\n<p>And in case you are interested, here is Streeting\u2019s \u201cnot me guv\u201d statement: \u201cThese claims are categorically untrue.
