Good to hear Rachel Reeves finally attack the 2 child benefit cap - but if Labour were so much against it, why’s it taken them so long to scrap it? And why were Labour MPs suspended for saying *exactly* the same last year? There’s no moral high ground here #budget2025

Since 2011 fuel duty freeze has cost the Treasury a whopping £133bn and added to yet more climate emissions. Freezing it yet again is reckless & irresponsible #budget2025

Raiding the Warm Homes Plan to find the money for a one-off cut to energy bills is utterly perverse when the Plan exists precisely to insulate homes & thus keep bills lower in perpetuity- this simply isn’t serious #budget2025

MISSING: Closing tax loopholes for private jets, taxing airplane fuel, a frequent flyer levy.

Why does the Chancellor have such a blind spot for anything that might tackle the excesses of the aviation industry? #Budget

"Ordinary people are going to see their income tax bills increase"

@adrianramsay.bsky.social explains how Labour's budget fails to address unprecedented cost of living pressures- and how a wealth tax would raise revenues to fund our infrastructure and public services.

Some behind the scenes pics from Green Mayor Mike at the turning on of the Deal Christmas lights on Saturday. A great event, well attended despite the cold. The rain mostly held off until after the switch on!

Zack Polanski on "Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg" announces Green Party has 175,000 members. I also loved his explanation of the difference between 1 million & 1 billion. #GreenSurge
