Very disappointing to see the Shadow Chancellor proposing massive cuts to welfare and aid if elected. A tragedy that a party @Conservatives that led the world in legislating to spend 0.7% of GNI on aid now wants to drop it to 0.1% at a time of rising need

Shadow chancellor Mel Stride will say the plans will be funded by cuts to public spending worth £47bn.

A teacher on a £40k salary pays more tax than someone who makes the same from selling shares. Why is income from shares taxed less than income from work?

The chancellor is right that the government needs to play a more active role in tackling inflation - but her ideas on how (deregulation, suppressing wages, and sticking to her fiscal rules) are wrong. Here's why and what she should do instead🔽 https://t.co/QkJ4slIWIh

The Office for Budget Responsibility has hardwired austerity into British fiscal policymaking. It is an independent institution with too much power and too little democratic scrutiny. It must go. My new report @NEF suggests what should replace it Thread ⬇️

Protecting civic freedoms is essential to protecting democracy. It feels hugely disproportionate to treat peaceful protesters as terrorists. Our view on the weekend's arrests.

While the vast majority of British people support the right to peaceful protest, policymakers & some media celebrate protest if it is somewhere else or long ago but demonise it when it happens here, today. Yet, protecting civic freedoms is essential to protecting democracy.
