The reason for the rhetoric around the size of the welfare bill, is due to the amount of people who are now, and in the very near future, reaching pension age. Large families were encouraged post WWII, which didn't decline until the 1970's. A huge number of retirees over a 10 to 15 year period.

Dishonest Chancellor Rachel Reeves said: "Our free breakfast clubs are ensuring over half a million more children don’t start the school day hungry."

The first of these clubs won't start until April 2026, most are scheduled to open in September 2026, or 2027...

These kids are still hungry...

Yesterday: Israeli activists demonstrate in front of the British Embassy in Tel Aviv as part of a global wave of protests against the UK's proscription of Palestine Action as a terror group, and in solidarity with British activists who are currently imprisoned and on hunger strike.

The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population.

How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich?

They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

The 62 richest people on earth have more wealth than the bottom half of the world's population (economist Richard Wolff).

This is beyond obscene.

A wealth tax is the least we can do.

They're a shambles. A phrase about a brewery is appropriate.
Rachel Reeves, whose budget was almost entirely and deliberately briefed in advance of her statement, says it is "deeply disappointing" that the OBR has accidentally done the same

Is this the change you wanted when you voted Labour in 2024?
They're more Tory than the Tory party.
The Tory benches actually cheered just now when the Chancellor pointed out that they want cuts to public services & welfare of £47 billion
