Oh dear Chris. And BBC.

Think we’ll all go with the OBR official, rather than you and your unprofessional biased nonsense.

Feel free to issue an apology and have a bit of a think. Maybe about the years of barely scrutinised *Tory* policies that got us into this mess.

Our economic woes are caused by Brexit, (Ukraine), Covid, Brexit’s ugly baby - our dismal immigration policy, Truss budget, 14yrs of austerity…
All rightwing policies.
Quite mad that our media acts as if Labour’s budget is the end of days, when they failed to adequately scrutinise any of
that👆shit.

Remarkable how the gambling industry and its allied MPs always yell that if you tax gambling you’re out of touch with the ordinary, salt-of-the-earth working class chap who loves a flutter.

Actual ordinary, salt-of-the-earth working class chap: Tax it! Tax it more! Keep on taxing it, you bastards!
Fascinating that the cash ISA limit is the most unpopular item in the budget. I would have thought it would be unpopular but not more so than e.g. freezing tax thresholds.

70% of the additional spending from removing the two-child limit will go to families who are in work. This is targeting support for low-income working households who are being priced out of a decent standard of living despite doing everything asked of them.

Removing the two-child limit accounts for less than 1 per cent of social security bill. To remove 450,000 children out of poverty, that's pretty good return on investment.

Such important context for the scrapping of the two child limit:

Bossy headline from The Times letting Farage insist his “Hitler was right” racism was just ‘banter’.
If that were true, his politics now would be different and he’d apologise. He’s defensive because this is what he is and always has been and he’s angry with us for knowing that and for minding.

Not in a hurtful way.

Not with intent.

And it makes zero sense - they’re trying to (for some reason) get into the mind of an electorate that will never vote for them, while actively alienating voters on the centre and left.

A Labour government with a historic majority has somehow decided the best way to beat the far right is to imitate its homework. Badly.

Yes Ed!

I can hear your passion and your enthusiam!

I stand with you.

As for Farage....doesn't he sound bored? Talking our country down, announcing damaging policies, scrapping jobs...and sounds like he doesn't even want to be there!

(More like this Labour!)

Grooming gang survivor Ellie Reynolds encouraged by Farage to answer general Reform press questions (this one about Pochin's comments).

It is profoundly irresponsible by Farage to expose her to this risk - and destroys his claim that "this is not a Reform or political proposal".

Also NB "Sarah".

Oh dear.
There is no difference.
Both Tory and Reform are peddling racism for votes. Pochin *and* Jenrick were racist and twisting yourself into an ugly knot to try to claim otherwise is just a collapse of your own dignity as well as your morality.

Labour have a new video clipping together Pochin, Streeting and Philp:

Philp had 6 opportunities to condemn the Reform MP's racist comments. He refused.

The Tory party has become too weak to stand up to Reform.

Labour is clear - there is no place for this politics in Britain.

If you’re hung up on noticing peoples ethnicity more than the product they’re advertising or it makes you so angry to see black and Asian people that you have to turn off your telly, then I would suggest you’re very much just a racist.
