The Bank of England's Deputy Governor has apologised after he described the economy as 'menopausal'. Ben Broadbent's comment provoked anger, with critics arguing the use of the word was sexist and ageist. The government has delivered its first Budget. Political commentator Bryce Edwards joins the panelists to discuss what this means politically, what the reaction will be from the public and the opposition, and whether the government has delivered on its promises.
