I see the PM is being very rattled and very untruthful about the Greens again in the papers.
He couldn’t say this stuff in Parliament because he would be lying to the House - both about what our popular, evidence-based policies are, and about him believing this guff.

Starmer says he’s "taking the gloves off" and that the Greens are "nuts"
Big talk from the PM of vibes based cruelty and trickle down cowardice.

Bill increases of nearly a third for millions of ordinary people have helped Thames Water's profits soar to over £400 million. Foreign hedge fund lenders want more power to pollute our waters and raise our bills. Privatised water is a scam. Let's bring it back into public hands.

The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population.
How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich?
They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

How wonderful to hear a leftwing - actually any UK politician able to argue properly. @zackpolanski.bsky.social is the future.
@zackpolanski.bsky.social wants to introduce a wealth tax of 1% on assets of over £10m & 2% on assets over £1bn & if the super rich want to leave the UK because they are being taxed a tiny amount more then we should wave them goodbye
Thatcherite John Redwood says 1% isn't a tiny amount.

It's Budget Day, and our message to the Chancellor is clear: 📢 Privatised water stinks!📢 Our bills are going up, yet there's no sign of an end of sewage spills. 💩 In fact, Yorkshire Water's performance is getting worse. 👎 Enough is enough. Nationalise water to clean up our rivers and cut bills! ✅

A Government of cowards.
Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.
They can't get away with this.
