Original Note:
The CN claims the OBR found no "£22bn black hole". But they did find a black hole of £9.5bn in the published figures. Add a discovered departmental overspend of £7bn Feb-July and the £5.6 committed to public sector wage claims, and you have the £22bn as cited. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2e12j4gz0o
