The world has gone mad.
I think Reeves came out well on the budget & in spite of the mediafest of negative speculation, it went better than forecast.

At the end of the day, i want stable, well supported public services, solid defence &security, without political chaos that Farage’d deliver.

The real reason Reeves is making you pay more tax
This is about buying breathing space, politically and economically. The two factors are now inseparable.

On Truss & Kwarteng in ‘22. Allister Heath, Telegraph: “the best budget I have ever heard a British chancellor deliver". Alex Brummer, Mail: “a genuine Tory package elbowing to one side the Treasury's fiscal conservatism".
These men will now be paid actual money for their analysis of today’s budget.

Why do we need to hear from Badenoch?

All she does is attack while making out this budget should be Rachel Reeves last.

How can she is even comment when her own party destroyed the economy via Liz Truss, completely failed with Covid & Brexit. The list goes on…

Vicious, mean, Badenoch excelled in misogynistic attack mode that would curl the stomachs of most men. Revelling in contempt for Reeves I cringed as I’m sure most for the MPs across the piste. Behind her too there was some uncomfortable seat shifting of shame as their disgraceful Leader spat spite,

If you encountered Melania in a work of fiction you'd dismiss the character as a poorly drawn caricature of a Russian mole who infiltrated the presidency.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

Maybe he will get a tiny glimpse of what the rest of us feel. I’ve NO sympathy for him or his whining. He’s in a very privileged position that he can afford a £2m plus home & heat it & eat; I say shivering under a duvet rather than put the heating on. He doesn’t elucidate on the luxury car he drives

Apple is anti-union.

Tesla is anti-union.

Amazon is anti-union.

McDonald's is anti-union.

Walmart is anti-union.

These mega-corporations aren’t on workers’ side and their actions make it painfully clear.

"By 2025, Brexit had reduced UK GDP by 6% to 8%, with the impact accumulating gradually over time. We estimate that investment was reduced by between 12% and 18%, employment by 3% to 4% and productivity by 3% to 4%"

Journalists and the media who do not consistently and directly challenge Farage on his and Reform’s links to Russia are colluding with him.
