Britain braces itself for “eyewatering” cuts to cover the £60bn bill for Trussonomics. And Jeremy Hunt braces himself for the howls of the Tory Right. Plus: Braverman turns bagwoman to sign a migrants deal with France. And good news! The Democrats take the Senate and Trump gets the blame! Alex Andreou gives Jacob Jarvis the run-down on the coming week.

• “We’re now trying to fill a much bigger hole caused by the Truss-Kwarteng fiasco.”
• “The cuts will have to go much further simply because the markets no longer trust us.”
• “To impose cuts on this scale when you know they will kill people is just immoral.”
