If you want to know how China is shocking the economic world with levels of growth they say are impossible - the answer is that China doesn’t have an IFS, OBR or an Institute for Economic Affairs.
Latest line from Rachel Reeves seems that insisting the manifesto commitments on tax "still stand” isn't the same as promising not to break them... 🤷♀️

Labour = DEAD Tories = DEAD GOOD
The story in Caerphilly is that the Farage bubble is obviously bursting, that a progressive majority will vote tactically and that Labour’s very future - vital for British politics- depends on its willingness to stand by progressive values, voters and policies .

This one will go down in history 😂
Is it just me but suddenly everything feels …. normal ? No more psycho dramas and scandals. Like the grown ups are back in Govt & people can get on with their lives watching politics out the corner of their eyes. Safe

what about YOUR subsidies?! what about the HoL subsidies free loaders ! We see you
I lifted the lid on Motability ...a scheme set up for people with serious disabilities. It has stretched way beyond that now. @Conservatives would change that - and stop hardworking people who do the right thing being taken for a ride 👇 https://t.co/bdzkwXWiiI

Completely disregards the previous years of cuts and dismantling of public services Like the met police cuts and tories then turning around and asking why they can't find a Bobby on the beat.. Hypocrisy off the scale

And taking money off pensioners and the disabled while taking bungs from tax haven hedge funds
This is who our Prime Minister is & what our Labour Party stands for. Plurality, diversity & harmony. Don’t let them tell you otherwise.

Let the state take them on, fucking landlords. How does that increase productivity?
A poll of 50 leading mortgage brokers has discovered that 75% report their portfolio landlord clients getting ready to offload some or all their properties if Labour applies National Insurance (NI) tax to their rental income. 45% said they would sell all of their properties.

Nothing to do with 14 years of tory govt either These people are stupendously stupid Complex systems take time to degrade and breakdown and then you see the cascading effects, like water and prison issues, or other crippled public services. We need better education in the UK
Today's government news: 1- The government deliberately collapsed the China spy trial 2- They have collapsed the grooming gangs inquiry by trying to subvert and deflect it 3- They have accidentally released the Epping hotel migrant sex attacker from jail.

Lost, not losing You're D E A D
The result in Caerphilly is a warning that we risk losing support to the left and right. We shouldn’t chase Reform down a dead end of division. We need to rediscover Labour values. We need a budget that raises living standards now and makes it easier for people to get by.

How does it impoverish everyone else? Have you seen the state of the US?
The proportion of working adults in the USA earning over £100k is 15%, 4 times higher than in Britain, where it's a measly 3.5%. High tax & spend economic policies in Britain not only actively discourage anyone from earning over £100k but impoverish everyone apart from welfare

I call this bullshit
It’s not the state’s job to hand out cars for ADHD, obesity or anxiety. Savings are one thing, but Motability needs a total overhaul. It's time to end this insult to British taxpayers. My @CityAM piece 👇 https://t.co/U3JUJcOH00

Fingers xd he sticks around!
Starmer is electoral kryptonite for Labour now. People absolutely hate him. The longer he stays, the deeper and more chronic and permanent the damage. If he stays until the next election in 2029 there will never be another Labour government.
