I would give her a bit more sympathy if she’d had the guts to let the OBR (or literally anyone at all) take a look at her budget proposal. If she legitimately thought that it would work, then there would be no reason to hide them from public scrutiny. But she did hide them from public scrutiny, which means she had some inkling that they would not be reviewed favorably.
It also doesn’t help that she’s shown absolutely no remorse feelings of responsibility over the fact that she crashed the economy, but as per the Tory handbook, it’s always somebody else’s fault.
