Just a normal, left of centre man that follows back.
Have learnt to re train my dislike of Tories, especially Thatcher and honed it to absolute disgust at Reform/Musk/Trump/Putin.

So Americans. Crash the economy through a trade war. Have a massive recession that drives indigenous labour costs down, make everything cheaper and the rich get even richer? Did I miss a bit?

Is it me? Or do particularly poor middle managers who demand the most ridiculous corporate policies are rolled out, remind me of politicians that are also just as out of depth. I'd extend that to Fox/GBNews journalists too.

If the government has no control over bond yields and bond yields determine fiscal policy, then we should be demanding every day that they present us with a roadmap for getting out of that situation (and not a roadmap supplied by the markets or the treasury).

We’ll cut taxes for the middle class, so you can keep more of your hard-earned paycheck.

Covering up for stupid 2, or did stupid 1 not get told?
Trump on his cabinet members using Signal to text war plans to a reporter: "I don't know anything about it. I'm not a big fan of The Atlantic. To be it's a magazine that's going out of business. But I know nothing about it. You're saying that they had what?"

Steve Reed, "If we renationalised water it would cost £100 billion" #BBCQT

Being outside the EU with Brexit costs us £100 billion in trade, which is around £40 billion in tax revenue

Being inside the EU Single Market, we could pay to renationalise the entire UK water industry within 2.5 years

Rachel Reeves: I will not 'tax and spend'.

That means cuts in some govt depts.

So far, two child benefit cap, winter fuel payment cut, freeze on income tax thresholds; proposed benefit cuts

Must ditch the fiscal rules. Tax the rich.

Can't grow economy without that.

Last night,Russia launched a very deliberate&demonstrative massive strike on Odesa: that's the ceasefire you get.
This is very usual for prison culture:to beat up& kill demonstratively.

I will repeat the facts once more:
Russia is a terrorist state.
Putin is a war criminal
