Still don’t know how that happens. The mechanism for this government (or any current Conservative government) collapsing and being forced to go to the people is just hard to imagine. Similarly, it’s hard to imagine them calling a snap election; the things they are introducing will not have an immediate effect in improving the lot of the average person, if ever. I don’t see them going for another leadership race before the next General Election.

Only about another 20 months of this shit show then, get them the fuck out.
 
Labour do look like they're talking all this far more seriously.
It's like Chalk and Cheese.
It's a piss take for the tories....they look addled.

What does the twat mean that it will be replaced by a 40% single rate? Is that on the whole of someone’s earnings after the personal allowance?

They are reducing income tax to 19% from 20% so I doubt it. I assume that will be on anything after 50k

Edit - 45% is on earnings of £150k lol so yeah, very helpful to the rich I assume it's a 5% reduction yet the rest of us plebs only get 1%. Anything after 50,200 is taxed at 40%

Gone full disaster capitalism.


As others have said should Reeves become chancellor next election she'll need to do something radical to try and dampen this raging forest fire of destruction of workers rights.

Could technically continue until January 2025, and there is going to be considerable pain ahead for everyone.

There is no data to support their policies, merely blind faith, and that means the coming weeks will see data arrive that will expose huge holes in what they are expounding.

Growth plan - cut taxes for the rich - let them accrue more and more of the housing stock - squeeze the poor - force them to do more work and restrict their right to withdraw labour - Tory Britain in 2022 - shit hole run by a gang of spivs

Yep. And all of this without any published costs from the OBR, or indeed an election mandate.

But the rich will spend as a result which means all the poor folk will become wealthy. That's how the world works right?
