George Osborne 'holds face-to-face talks' with Jeremy Hunt as Sunak prepares to fix £50bn black hole

Jeremy Hunt has reportedly met with George Osborne ahead of setting out his plans to plug the £50bn black hole facing the country's finances.

Hunt is believed to have already asked all government departments to find efficiency savings, with piling the pressure on areas including policing and education. In a report released on Wednesday, it said: "On any reasonable definition, this would be a return to ‘austerity’." It added: "The estimated £40bn of departmental savings that Jeremy Hunt needs to find would be much more damaging to public services and harder to deliver than the coalition government’s 2010 austerity programme."
