That's appalling. They already get paid too much money for doing 'f' all.

Tax-cutting mini Budget on Friday next week

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-62917548

Cutting taxes for the rich.

No help to the poor and those on low wages who pay no tax.:fist:

The champagnes on me girlies when they slash the corporate tax rate.

Because Parliament closes down tomorrow
for the Party Conferences

He is going to do the mini budget at 9:30AM Friday.

As parliament closes at 5pm
tomorrow.


BBC2HD Politics Live special
Tomorrow from 9AM Friday

Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng's odd behaviour at the Queen's funeral was reported but not as much as it should have been. Many people suggesting he was on drugs, laughing and moving his body about in his seat.

He's never had to answer any questions about that. :fist:

But I'll be watching at 9.30am.

People handle situations like that in different ways. I don't honestly know how I would handle everyone around me being all sombre and quiet. I would probably crack a joke to break the ice

Well if you've seen the footage, it's not a normal smile or even an out of place grin, it's like he is high on drugs. I'm not saying he was but perhaps he had a bad reaction to medication. But it's not right this incident has largely been covered up.

Doesn't seem the type

He is the most qualified chancellor we have ever had i believe so that warrants giving him a chance at least

The Government maintains this is a Fiscal Event
thus avoiding an initial OBR report.

[The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) was
established in 2010 to examine and report
on the sustainability of the public finances.]
