Laura Kuenssberg skewers Rishi Sunak on the economic damage of Brexit Laura Kuenssberg, "The long term political choices the UK has made, including leaving the EU, has made it more difficulty for our economy" "Your old bosses at Goldman Sachs say plainly: in the long-term, Brexit has meant that the UK is notably under performing compared to other economies" Rishi Sunak, "We had a referendum.. The British people made a choice.. I was proud to support Brexit.. It's the right thing for our country" Laura Kuenssberg, "Goldman Sachs, the OBR say that trade will be much slower in the long term because we've left the EU" "Do you accept, as one of your own ministers Kevin Hollinrake said this week, that leaving the EU has made things more difficult for many businesses" Rishi Sunak, "Of course, when you leave the EU Single Market and the Customs Union, that is going to change our trading relationship" Laura Kuenssberg, "Making trade more difficult" Rishi Sunak, "Of course that changes your trading relationship.. We have now overtaken France, Japan and the Netherlands to become the 4th largest export economy in the world" For anyone confused. We are trading less goods which is making it difficult for British businesses, however we are selling more services Rishi Sunak, "The choice for people is, if they want to reverse that with Labour, that's what they'll get. Keir Starmer is very clear he will want to do a deal with the EU which will mean accepting some form of free movement of people" Yes please Laura Kuenssberg, "We've talked about that and Labour have denied it" "I want to make clear to our viewers that the vast majority of the trade deals were rolled over deals that we already had with the EU.. The US is not interested in a trade deal even though that was one of the big promises of Brexit" Rishi Sunak, "You haven't mentioned that we're the first European nation to join CPTPP" Laura Kuenssberg, "Which is not yet enforced" Rishi Sunak, "It just needs to go through parliament.. That's a big moment.. We are close to a trade deal with India.. I don't think it's right for Labour accepting EU rules we have no say over" Laura Kuenssberg, "I remind you that Labour have denied that.. And our viewers want to hear the party policies of the person sitting in the chair" Rishi Sunak, "There is plenty of evidence, even from your own minister, that the economic reality of Brexit is that the UK standing long term is more challenging than had we stayed in the EU"

Krishnan Guru-Murthy, "Your friends at The Spectator have used your own methodology to cost your plans. They say it would cost £3,000. Do you accept that?" Bim Afolami, "No I don't. I haven't seen that figure at all" KGM, "They did it the same way you did it. The point is, this is a dishonest way to present numbers, isn't it?" BA, "I'm afraid it isn't"
