We’re getting to the point where a popular uprising might actually be more of an intervention for their own good. No guillotines or firing squads. Just lead them to quiet rooms so they can lie down for a bit before going back to whatever they were doing before they foolishly strayed into politics.

So, let me get this straight. After the disastrous 'leadership challenge' briefing on Tuesday, somebody has told Starmer he needs to listen to his backbenches & by Thrsday he's binned his budget as a consequence.
Remarkable.

Absolute bombshell report in the FT tonight that Reeves has effectively ripped up her entire Budget and abandoning plans to raise income tax.
Means a lot of disparate, smaller measures now on the table.
Just yesterday morning I was told they were desperate to avoid that.

What the fuck is going on No.10? The Budget is two weeks away & the FT is reporting that planned rises in Income Tax are to be axed. All that political pain for no fiscal gain. This is clown-show level turbo-bollocks.
