Alongside the Chancellor's first Autumn Statement, the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) has released deficit forecasts over the course of the UK's departure from the EU. The result is clear: Hammond's hopes of a large scale infrastructure investment have been sunk by the estimated £122bn Brexit black hole. In fact, despite the constraining effect Brexit has had, some, including the SNP, claim the Chancellor has been too thin on Brexit policy. For more on this, Share Radio's Glen Goodman was joined on the line by Tasmina Ahmed Sheikh, SNP International Trade Spokesperson.
