What should we actually pay attention to in Jeremy Hunt’s Autumn Statement, away from the points he wants to spin?

• "We shouldn’t treat taxes as a burden, but a responsibility.” – Jo Michell

• “Longer term forecasts are completely unpredictable." – Jo Michell

• “The government is against investment itself, just green investment." – Jo Michell
