Sunak is going to have to make some interesting decisions. We'll soon see how popular he remains.
He's either going to have to borrow, or explicitly tell people to suck up a massive hit to their wallets.
There will be public sector workers who have slogged for over 2 years now working in response to the pandemic, working extra hours, and also whilst home schooling their kids, and they're going to be in the region of 2k a year worse off in real terms, having had next to no pay rises for a decade.
