Furious Keir Starmer has blasted Liz Truss's war against the "anti-growth coalition" and said the mini-Budget was "as anti-growth as you could possibly be”.
The Labour leader said Ms Truss's "kamikaze" economic growth plan had pushed up mortgages, pointing to analysis by the party showing average buyers face £500-a-month hikes if interest rates hit 6%.
Financial research service Moneyfacts said the average two-year fixed-rate mortgage had breached 6% on Wednesday - the first time since 2008.
