They're all just Farage firms taking their voters for fools.
🔥 Brexit has failed.
🔥 Reform councils have failed.
🔥 Everything Farage touches fails.
Yet Farage and his Putin-pals keep earning millions from a grift that sows nothing but hate, division and lies

It is IMO not possible to operate any kind of meaningful democracy when your national press is a joke and a travesty, but your mileage on that may vary. I think it’s incontestable that it is impossible to govern well and effectively, while being in hock to these pantomime clowns.

We need to smash this untruth shared by Nick Robinson on #r4today, and by his mates in the Tory/Reform party, that working people will be funding people who do not work with the lifting of the benefit cap.
They are very often the same people. 60% of beneficiaries are IN WORK and many others ...

Literally!! The right wing papers Hate You Anyway!! Why not give them something to Really Hate You For, and know - at least - people will thank you in ten years time???
Serious howls of outrage in the media this morning at what is a relatively modest Budget from Labour that does nothing more than fiddle around the margins.
It does highlight the missed opportunity. If you’re going to get this reaction anyway, why not at least get it for attempting a big swing?

Scrapping the two-child limit in full is a monumental decision. Well done to all involved in the Child Poverty Strategy, and everyone who has made the case against the policy.
OBR says scrapping costs £3 billion in 2029-30 and will lift 450,000 out of poverty

Whatever else this government do (and there's plenty of issues with this budget) ministers will always be able to point to this as an incredible important contribution to the country's future. Almost half a million kids taken out of poverty.
