If you want to have a go at "unaccountable institutions", surely the OBR are the last people you should hit on? They have no power to do anything except issue predictions (as do lots of other organisations) which you are free to believe or disbelieve. Liz Truss certainly cannot blame them for her failure since she excluded them from the process when she was drawing up her mini-budget. Had she included them in the process, perhaps they might have brought to her attention some of the things she now admits she didn't know!
