A Rachel Reeves interview was stopped mid-air due to a technical glitch that resulted in her voice sounding extremely high pitched.
Discussing recent inflation data from the Office of National Statistics in a squeaky voice, the Chancellor was cut short mid-sentence by Sky News.
Presenter Wilfred Frost had to apologise for the technical blunder: “I think we’ve got a problem there with the sound, again,” he explained.
Inflation rose to 3.5 per cent last month – the largest month-on-month rise in two and a half years.
