The chancellor is set to announce immediate cuts worth billions of pounds, aimed at plugging a £20bn black hole in the finances, when she addresses Parliament on Monday. These include:
1. The Eton Mess Memorial Museum, set up by the Conservatives to celebrate the country's favourite dessert.
2. The Tunnel under Boris Johnson, planned to relieve pressure on the National Monument, is one of the infrastructure projects that could be halted to save money.
3. The Rwanda Migration scheme could be adapted to send Tory MPs who lost their seats for a few weeks break on Michelle Mone's Mediterranean yacht before they have to find new jobs.
4. Rishi Sunak's swimming pool will be turned into a new reservoir to provide clean drinking water to the whole country.
The Conservative Party said the state of the public finances was clear before the election. This is at least one thing on which everyone agrees.
