I really don't have a clue where they go from here. Starmer and Reeves are prisoners of a Parliamentary party that hasn't got the stomach for reform. Which is of course, what we'll end up with.
We will now have a second consecutive summer of speculation about who gets taxed, when and where. Businesses and individuals need certainty, not political games.

Seems debt is the only thing that is growing. This is all going to shit for Labour at the moment:

Yes, probably best not to let the people know too often how badly they're being let down, eh?

Cheers Tories!
Labour should scrap the idiotic Tory policy brought in by Hunt and Sunak and copy the Lib Dem's policy, it's right there

You won't find me disagreeing with you on that one iota.

CGT allowance reduction was a gift from Sunak. One of the most under the radar tax changes I’ve ever known. Imagine the press if Reeves would have tried to do that.

She didn’t have to double down though did she?
RE: Growth - baggy1 - 07-27-2025
How did she double down?
