Why did Griffith criticise Healey?

Andrew Griffith, as Shadow Chancellor, aims to highlight any perceived missteps by the government, especially regarding economic matters. Mocking Healey's video as 'influencer' behaviour, particularly with the Budget approaching, allows Griffith to portray the Chancellor as out of touch or distracted, undermining public confidence in his economic management.
