Michael Gove channelled his inner Liverpudlian on Wednesday morning as he put on different accents to impersonate the Treasury and political pundits.

The Levelling Up Secretary shouted the words “calm down!” in a Scouse accent after adopting an American twang as he said “an emergency budget”, “major capital letters”, and “a big news story”.

Mr Gove appeared on BBC Breakfast to rule out an emergency Budget after Boris Johnson suggested Rishi Sunak would be “saying more” about help with the cost-of-living crisis in the coming days.
