Hunt is lampooned for patronising clip while waiting for a cup of coffee

"The chancellor’s ‘plan’ is to do nothing at all, other than talk to you like you’re a five year old child…"

Jeremy Hunt’s video, where he grabs a coffee, then tells us why our economy is totally screwed.

What seemed like a deep fake to begin with, turns out to be real.

The HM Treasury official account tweeted the video and wrote: “Why is inflation high and how are we going to halve it? Grab a coffee and let Chancellor @Jeremy_Hunt explain.”

With his annoying voice and some annoying background music he tried to explain why the UK is in a total mess, without blaming his own party, or mentioning Brexit.

Cost of living crisis

His video comes as wages in the private sector have risen at the fastest rate for more than 20 years but continued to fall in real terms as inflation remained in double digits in November, reports The Times.

Also the cost of living crisis is damaging the mental health of nearly half of adults in Great Britain, with people in Wales the unhappiest of all, according to research, reports The Guardian.

Why is inflation high and how are we going to halve it?

Reactions

1.

This is pathetic, denialistic and condescending
Seems the Government can treat us all like idiots and not mention Brexit or the Truss disaster which took us to where we are today

Who makes these? The script, camera angles, editing and even lens choices come together to create a condescending, mid-20th-century didactic tone.

Patronising tosh.#ToryTaxEvasion #ToryCorruption
Cronyism, ludicrous profit levels for Tory donor companies.

This is cringeworthy from Jeremy Hunt on inflation. We're not imbeciles & need inflation to be explained using cups.https://t.co/EvAsMpOkqH

You don’t mention @trussliz and @KwasiKwarteng crashing the economy causing circa 70 BILLION extra borrowings? Remember that @Jeremy_Hunt, it was only few months ago? You cheered them from back benches. 🤷🏼‍♂️ https://t.co/zUxGVBlfQz

Or indeed this?

Shorter version:

Inflation will only come down because of the things we are doing, insists government that claimed there was nothing they could do to influence inflation when it was going uphttps://t.co/jzT8nevwDg
