Also more money for NHS and lifting kids out of poverty are good things, taxing wealthy ppl sitting in expensive properties also good

Also: you may be right. I don’t know!

AI is killing growth through employment as are greedy board members who now earn 300X what ordinary ppl earn (compared with 20x 40 years ago). We’ve been robbed ever since Thatcher sell offs, it appears to me in hindsight

I’m fully aware of the reaction to both Budgets but I’m also sure that no Budget would be welcomed and that UK lost its marbles in 2016 and as a nation is in denial over our lack of money / growth/ productivity. It’s also a political post not a job for an academic or banker

But what is the critique exactly? Rachel from account may be far better with money than Horace the hedgefunder. The implication appears to be she has a little brain so therefore over-promoted. I very much believe any Budget would be massively criticised at this time

Very difficult in law to ban MPs from doing second jobs

I have to say the ppl I know who say ‘R from accounts’ have plenty of form when it comes to misogyny (‘the’ wife jokes etc etc). But ppl can view the phrase as they like

Met one the other night. It’s all true

How, exactly? ‘Should’ is not the point

Vicario had a nightmare and a poor error by Bergvall too

Players not manager. What the hell was Simons doing when he came on? May as well have been playing for the oppo

Silly question though. Corbyn clueless of course but probably trying to say friendship is irrelevant

Sounds like the only possible name could be the old cliche - the Loony Left. How could anyone trust either of these ppl in positions of importance ?

Drug dealing that makes money for Trump is fine. And lackeys are just swell whatever they’ve done. The boat guys made the mistake of being out of the loop. Although they may have been completely innocent in any case

Are you saying the president of the US lacks logic, analytical skills and moral values? 😳

Good work BBC. Vital work too
November 28, 2025 at 12:07 PM
Fascinating
November 28, 2025 at 8:48 AM
I agree but what ppl on here don’t seem to recognise is what a huge issue all forms of immigration is with ppl outside London. No democratic govt could ignore it but obvs the govt hasn’t tried to lead the conversation
November 28, 2025 at 8:22 AM
We hate Budgets too - the British hate facing up to reality
November 28, 2025 at 8:04 AM
Looking forward to the time when the US lives up its great cultural and democratic achievements again and turns its back on this hideous greed (which I don’t think is sustainable) led by immoral and brazenly criminal billionaires

Family reunion visa has been suspended. You’re wrong

They do understand. They support Russia
November 26, 2025 at 7:23 PM
There is almost nothing they don’t lie about. Incompetent and corrupt, shame on the US for buying it
