Britain’s economy survived Omicron relatively unscathed, but soaring inflation and energy price rises exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine mean Rishi Sunak has a tough job on his hands to ease the worst cost of living crisis in decades.

Presented by Dr Gemma Tetlow with Thomas Pope and Jill Rutter
