Do budget deficits matter? Why is no-one talking about them? DEBATE - BBC Newsnight

Do budget deficits matter? If so, why is almost no-one talking about them in this general election this time? Evan Davis discusses with Chris Philp, a Conservative MP on the Treasury Select Committee, and UCL professor Mariana Mazzucato, who sat on the Labour Party's Economic Advisory Committee.

Newsnight is the BBC's flagship news and current affairs TV programme - with analysis, debate, exclusives, and robust interviews.
