I apologise to audience and guests for the technical problems this morning which meant the programme was only partially broadcast. They were unexpected and will be investigated. We will be looking to see if we can get the whole uninterrupted show on iPlayer as soon as possible.

Hi Simon. By your response it was either a too subtle or lame joke about the Chancellor’s travails this week.

'Starmer loves Cumbria but Labour Budget cuts hitting farmers hard' Cumbrian farmer Liz Staley says a cut to basic payments is pushing her family
