Why are people suddenly pearl clutching over income tax thresholds?

Where have you been for the last 4.5yrs?

The freeze has been in place since Apr 2021, when Chancellor Sunak froze them from 2021 to Mar 2026!

Then Chancellor Hunt froze them further in Autumn 2022 to Mar 2028!

The attacks on Labour from BBC News are now so relentless, day after day, minute after minute, putting headline negativity on absolutely anything they say, or do.

Are they now the official opposition?

Its cabinet has been forced to approve a £10mn list of cuts.

On the eve of the budget, I am reminded by an old friend on Facebook of the wise saying:

"Taxation is the subscription we pay for living in a civilised society"

A sentiment lost since the age of Thatcher but sorely needed if we are to keep whatever level of a decent society we currently enjoy.

So as Nigel Farage has a good buddy & a long time prominent member of his Reform party jailed for taking Russian bribes, the BBCs Chris Mason thinks it is Keir Starmer who needs to be questioned over his leadership credentials.
Stop the gossip journalism & seek out a real story… Farage & Russia.

The Covid Inquiry’s findings are devastating. So many families suffered unimaginable loss, and their experiences must never be forgotten.

We must take these findings seriously and ensure we are far better prepared for the future. My thoughts are with all those who suffered.

Farage’s Pal and traitor, Reform UK’s Nathan Gill, took Kremlin bribes and the press handled it like a Reform Councillor seeing a fanny in real life - panicked, confused and completely unable to comment.

He’s sentenced tomorrow and I bet you’ve barely heard about it 👇🏼

Rep. Khanna: Now it is a criminal offense for any career official at the Justice Department or the FBI not to release these files. It's a contempt of Congress. It's no longer, 'we just don't feel like doing it now.' You're violating federal law, and that's something very serious.

The President is calling for Democratic members of Congress to be hanged. This is deplorable, un-American, & an open invitation to political violence.

The President of the United States is publicly calling for the political prosecution of his political opponents, urging the death penalty because they urged soldiers to uphold the rule of law.

This should be front page news everywhere. It is not, which tells much about how we got to this point.
