This level of going after the administration is actually pretty stunning from a same party chair.

Mike Turner: "This activity that's happening in the Caribbean where they are hitting these boats -- these individuals if they were captured and tried and convicted, they would be guilty of criminal activity for which they're not subject to capital punishment. These people are being killed."

Babies receive a Hepatitis B vaccine at birth because a mom can transmit the virus through childbirth. Not good. There are no negative consequences for the baby in receiving the vaccine.

Farage is a nazi who hates jews. He is no different than he was 48 years ago. A man wholly unfit for public service. He’s only in it for personal enrichment at the expense of the nation. #ukpolitics

Starmer states that rail fairs & prescription charges are frozen plus energy bills are coming down by £150.

He also states Labour are going further, taking action to make infant formula cheaper to help struggling families.

Badenoch talking nonsense & lies.

The blackhole is very real! She just doesn’t want to accept that her party destroyed the countries finances.

Removing the two child benefit cap takes 500,000 children out of poverty but yet Badenoch doesn’t seem to understand that.

This is how Chris Mason, like a child filled with wonder, described "the choreography and theatre that surrounds a Budget" in Feb 2024, when a male Tory Chancellor was in post.

"Plans, or even just options, can be floated... Reaction to them can be tested. Opponents can be teased or wrongfooted." 👀

Before the last doctor strikes Wes Streeting offered a whole range of improvement measures to resident doctors, including more training places, covering costs of exams and better rotas.

But the BMA rejected it, focusing only on pay.

Well yes. But Labour’s anti-migration policies are slightly less hostile than those of the Tories and Reform. So, maybe the whole dismal and dishonest debate on immigration needs to be reconsidered, before the country is bankrupted by prejudice.

The "charge" seems to be that she didn't correct the papers' rampant erroneous speculation

Well, no why should she? She is the Chancellor, not some fairy god-mother whose job it is to stop them talking utter bollocks

Suspect that are just annoyed the financial markets said "Like" to the budget

Fucking hell! “Misled”! Has anyone seen what the Tories and Farage promised with #Brexit that currently costs £1.7billion a week! I’m not defending anyone here but the elephant in the room is still Brexit. That’s causing the biggest hole of all in the economy.

Chris Mason is an utter disgrace. Along with his crony Kuenssberg, they are freeloading on the license payers. This is not public service broadcasting, it is spiteful personal agenda bitching. Shame on them and their self gratifying justification.

#R4Today piece about chancellor not being honest in recent statements. It’s a shame Farage, Johnson, Gove, Cameron, every single member of the ERG, et al weren’t held to the same standards over promised #Brexit benefits.

I heard him on R4 this morning airing his views and did wonder why he was always so reluctant to do so when Boris Johnson was in power.

I seem to recall that in those days the line was “it’s not on us to tell you if a politician is lying.”

Not that Reeves is lying.

The Chancellor chose not to share some information on tax receipts in an unusual press conference, given before the Budget.
