Corbynists now referring to Osborne's "Ultra-shambles" budget.
Last month the high court ruled that one of the world’s richest men – Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber al-Thani, the former prime minister of Qatar – could not be sued in London over claims that agents acting on his behalf falsely imprisoned and tortured a British citizen, because he is protected by diplomatic immunity.
In that case, Hammond’s deputy, James Duddridge, said that “it is ultimately for the court to decide whether a foreign diplomat in the UK enjoys immunity in any particular case”.
Philip Hammond, the foreign secretary, has taken the highly unusual step of criticising a high court judge’s decision to strip diplomatic immunity from a Saudi billionaire facing divorce proceedings from his estranged wife.
Last month Christina Estrada, a former Pirelli calendar model, won the right to fight for a share of Sheikh Walid Juffali’s £4bn fortune. The couple split up following 13 years of marriage.
At the high court, Justice Anthony Hayden dismissed as “spurious” the Saudi businessman’s claim to have been shielded from litigation because of his role as permanent representative to the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) for the tiny Caribbean island of St Lucia.

A crackdown by the Department for Work and Pensions against its own employees’ trade unions has been declared unlawful by the High Court.
The DWP had scrapped the “check-off” system for collecting union subscriptions – which previously allowed employees to pay their dues through their salaries without extra bureaucracy.
But the scrapping, described by PCS union general secretary Mark Serwotka as “vindictive”, was ruled unlawful at the High Court on Friday.
Ending check-off has however cost trade unions significant amounts of money in direct debit fees – opening up the possibility that the PCS could be awarded damages for loss of income.
The defence secretary, Michael Fallon, has agreed to pay damages to an imam after repeating false claims that he was a supporter of Islamic State.
