Sir Keir Starmer accuses Tories of 'delusion'

Sir Keir Starmer has accused the
Conservative Government of 'delusion' following
the budget announcement.

The Labour leader told the Commons:
'I mean over 14 years we have seen our fair share
of delusion from the party opposite.
A Prime Minister who thinks the cost of
living crisis is starting to ease.

'An Education Secretary (Gillian Keegan) who thinks
concrete crumbling on our children deserves
her gratitude. A former prime minister (Liz Truss)
who still believes crashing the pound was
the right path for Britain.']

said around 25,000 of its 32,000 staff
will be rewarded in their March pay packets after
'another year of rapid growth']

Good time for Greggs to announce rewards for staff.

Other than, after denouncing it as ridiculous as Labour Policy for years, the only thing of note was the U turn on the non doms.

Otherwise this was another non event as a budget really.

Just reading the headlines of this budget now, it is probably one of the worst budgets I have seen for a while, I can't imagine they think they will win an election off the back of this? I think they have thrown in the towel tbh

Yes he is saving
the Real Budget for later in the Year


Ref: Henry Hill speaking Live on College Green.

I'm sick of Sunak pussy footing around. I want a May General Election. :mad:

Today was a total farce.

I wouldn't be 100% happy with a Labour government, but it'll be better than this current shambles.

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt cuts workers' National Insurance by another 2p in the Budget, meaning it falls from 10% to 8%
He also increases the child benefit threshold from £50,000 to £60,000
Hunt says the National Insurance cut, to begin next month, is worth £450 a year for the average worker
It follows a 2p cut in last year's Autumn Statement - but there is no change to income tax
Labour leader Keir Starmer calls the Budget a "last desperate act" with people paying "more and more for less and less"
New official forecasts say the government will collect 37.1p per pound of GDP in 2028/29 - the highest level in nearly 80 years
The OBR also says the economy will grow faster than expected - that, plus some tax rises, and existing "fiscal headroom", are what's funding the cuts
Hunt also increases the VAT threshold for small businesses to £90,000, and announces higher taxes on vapes and business class flights
And he says he's "abolishing" the "non-dom" tax system, but new arrivals to the UK will still not pay taxes on foreign income for four years

No Gusto


Local Elections are in May.


Do your Damage there

450 for the average household? not according to this :laugh:

Either way, it's probably not the hugest of vote-winners. I think most people would rather see themselves keeping more of their own money, than seeing money being taking from the rich.

[Labour and Tories accused of silence over cuts]

I say :Typical of Labour to follow the Conservative Cuts

[The Conservatives and Labour have been
accused of a "conspiracy of silence" over
the scale of spending cuts or tax rises
by an influential think tank.
Tough decisions would need to be made
following the next election,
the Institute for Fiscal Studies said.
Chancellor Jeremy Hunt told the BBC it
would be "challenging" to live within
current spending restrictions.

Labour says it will have to make future
savings to public spending to fund
some of its policies if it wins power.
The state of the economy is under intense focus
in the run-up to a general election that
must be called before next January.]

So far.
Pensioners don't seem very happy.

He hasn't addressed anything for them.

I was with others talking to a group of them last night who are furious they've no more help to come on energy bills.
Which are still around 65% more than just around 2 years ago
Most are going to vote LibDem now.

BBC News Text:

[The Daily Mirror, meanwhile, calls the government
"pension pinchers".
In what it calls a "Tory Budget bombshell",
millions of pensioners will now face a hit
on their incomes as a result of
"Conservative stealth taxes".
It quotes the Silver Voices campaign group
as saying this is something
older people are "hopping mad" about.]
