Budget 2024

Was expecting it to be so much worse with all the doom and gloom reported since Labour got in. Not bad on the surface of it all. Guess we'll find out how 'bad' it is when the BBC/Sky get their orders.
 
Did any of you find it strange that there was no mention of illegal immigrant's in the budget?

Have they waved their hands of the problem already?
Did you not hear the part where they plan to increase their weekly allowance, paid for by taxing the usage of greengrocers’ apostrophes?
 
I think it's a pretty decent budget too. It's just the lazy arses sat on their investments that are pissed off.
Business's will be the ones pissed off and they just pass any increase in costs into their customers which will drive up inflation. £40b in tax increases has to be found from somewhere.

I'm just watching a Financial Expert on the BBC now, he's no political affiliation but he's talking absolute sense.
 
Think you have two choices when you need to reduce debt , spend less or raise your income (taxes). Labour always go for the latter. I would love to know how much is paid in any kind of benefits to people who weren't born here. I don't care what anyone says to the contrary but the benefits available contributes massively to the number of immigrants both legal and illegal and as a country we can't afford it. Tax the rich who can afford it for sure but give it to the pensioners who've contributed taxes for 40 odd years and deserve a decent standard of living without worrying if they can afford to keep warm and eat.
Tax credits are far more of an issue than welfare payments.
 
Fuck me Sophy Ridge the erstwhile quintessential sweet English rose has turned into Tory K on steroids , she's well pissed off. This budget has hit her for sure. Never seen her like this, incredibly aggressive lolz
