The Conservative Party

[mat]

The budget speech is just gaslighting and magic money trees.

What's this "debt is down"?

I wonder if Rishi has ever experienced debt in a way we have where you're budgeting every single day to make sure bills are paid at the detriment of something like eating?

You could say that about any member of the Nasty Party.

Proving the point...

Rishi is an expert in polishing a turd.

Hopefully Reeves and then Blackford will then expose the smoke and mirrors for what it is.

They usually just throw the turds into the sea or river the fuckers.

Anyhow only caught the first couple of minutes, great yarn he is telling but too many holes in the plot and most of the story stretches credibility too far.

I expect the ending for us all to be a great disappointment.

You know they can prove anything with stats Vic. You've heard this shite probably more times than me. They have done a wonderful job do keep up:-)

I doubt many on either side of the commons have tbh. Budget already sounds good, but like most of sunaks seemingly generous public policy announcements may not be that generous once subject to scrutiny. 90% of the electorate will not be interested in the detail though

Exactly.

They'll see whatever the main headline is on their paper of choice and act accordingly.

There's an election coming.


Draft relief - lower rate of tax on draft beers and ciders. Cuts duty by 5%

I'd say that will be the tabloid front page!

3p/pint though, he says, which is fairly irrelevant.

Announcing not introducing a tax rise as a tax cut is pushing things though.

Awaits all the "Cheers Rishi" headlines covering the tax breaks for the rich.

Either that or he's worked out that inflation is rising so quick that the tax take won't be reduced by the tax cuts.

Maybe irrelevant to your average beer drinker, but certainly not irrelevant to your average pub landlord.

Rachel Reeves telling it like it is and destroying Sunak for the rich little Tory he is and represents !

Utter nonsense. She's a bumbling moaner. All Labour have left is to moan. They'll be nowhere near for years. Nearly everything she said could be argued against. They just want a benefit driven country.

Get them in spoons too pissed to vote.

It has the feel of a GE budget. Trying to sell to all.

Haha! Imagine still trying to push the labour are shit line when the government you voted in are systematically tearing the UK apart.
Have you no fucking shame? Hold them to account for fucks sake, not blindly support them because they aren't Labour.

Well Well...Rishi forgot to mention the increase in social care budget will be paid by a hike in council tax.

Us plebs covering the tab whilst his mates get cheaper internal business flights.
