A heated Brexit debate erupts as broadcaster and author Emma Wolfe clashes with former Labour minister Bill Rammell over the impact of Brexit on Britain’s economy. The exchange quickly turns personal, with Wolfe challenging the arguments being made about Britain’s economic outlook and firing back with a blunt assessment: “Can we trust him? No.”

Wolfe also takes aim at Andy Burnham over what she describes as a “fiscal crisis looming”, accusing him of contributing to uncertainty in the markets. She dismisses Burnham’s attempts to point back to the 1980s and Margaret Thatcher when discussing the challenges facing Britain today, calling it “embarrassing” and arguing that responsibility lies with those in power now.

The debate reaches boiling point when Wolfe and Rammell clash over Brexit and its consequences for the British economy, culminating in the explosive demand: “Take that back!”
