Original Note:
This government is not reducing debt. In fact, it is borrowing £80bn to pay interest on its debts. It is therefore increasing debt. It hopes to be increasing debt at a slower rate in 5 years. There is no debt reduction forecast. https://obr.uk/forecasts-in-depth/brief-guides-and-explainers/public-finances/
