You were saying they're all the same last night and so I asked you to point out corruption by this government. You apparently couldn't reply.
So they aren't doing the same are they, that's the point.
There are no examples of corruption that are anything like gifting billions to their mates for useless PPE, the extents they went to to facilitate that are something you'd see in a banana republicYou want an example of labour corruption?

I thought they'd most likely come from the inside tbh, like you say it's hardly a win from a Tory pov.
I'm not sure they have the same impact anyway so long from the event, just reminds everybody how bizarre the rules were.
£50 says it’s Piers CorbynAlways a possibility. MPs are always in a weird bubble and obsessed with stuff from years ago. All this lockdown stuff came from Twitter and GB News first so I assumed the right but who knows.
Oh fuck off. Rewarding people who are funding you is still a form of corruption whether the recipient went to Eton or a comprehensive in Streatham.Labour supporters favour giving workers disposable income over corruption giving millions to a mate. More on this shock news as we get it.
Don’t be so fucking stupid.Is the pub landlord guy going to drive my trains for me?
It’s a reward for contributions to Labour Party coffers.Well earlier we had giving train drivers a payrise as an example of corruption - can you beat that?
One of mine genuinely didDon’t be so fucking stupid.
Is the train driver going to pull you a pint?
If only we had that choiceHow does that manifest itself then? You don’t contribute to any political parties? Pay any tax? Vote?
Was it any good?One of mine genuinely did
I’ll let you know when it arrivesWas it any good?

Actually scratch that, it’s been cancelled due to a broken down barrel. Been offered a replacement 0% lager as compensation.Wait ages then end up with a replacement Britvic.

I think almost everyone I know is like this. And I say that as someone who’s probably more politically engaged than average. Just curious what ‘giving up on politicians’ actually means in this context.It just means he's putting him and his wife first over any political views, surely?
I guess then it means going from caring about and engaging with politics to just ignoring it.I think almost everyone I know is like this. And I say that as someone who’s probably more politically engaged than average. Just curious what ‘giving up on politicians’ actually means in this context.
What are these peak hours you refer to Malc, there's not enough activity that fits that discription is there.More likely planned maintenance on the pipes at peak hours.
She's only gone and blown the bloody doors off !
And to that end, the economy shall grow by way of increased energy and water bills, hurrah

From a personal point of view, my current mortgage fixed rate deal ends in April. The best available deal from my current provider is £98 more per month than I pay currently. We shall have to see how quickly these interest rate changes filter through if they do at all.

They really ought to get their story straight. Previously it was that interest rates must go up to counter energy price induced inflation. Now even with the prospect of energy price induced inflation they're going to come down. Hopefully this is a realisation that their previous policy was nonsensical.
I'm struggling a little bit to understand the immediate impact to the cost of living. >90% of mortgages are on fixed rates, these cannot just be renewed at will.
To be fair when they increased rates there were other elements of inflation that were rising and upward wage pressure due to tight labour market. one ‘beneficial’ unintended consequence of the budget is the employer NIC increases will further soften the labour market and maybe help reduce wage growth pressure which might make more cuts more likely - that’s what I reckon BoE are thinking anyway
Having said that I’ve thought BoE were slow to increase rates and have now been slow to cut
They feel able to cut now because of disinflation with domestic prices and wages, in spite of the threat of inflated energy prices. That doesn't mean all is well with the economy (interest rate cuts aren't usually a sign of economic prosperity) but it's consistent.They really ought to get their story straight.

The Bank disagrees:Consumer demand (confidence) hasn't suddenly collapsed
Business survey indicators of output growth have deteriorated over recent months, as have broader metrics of business and consumer confidence, which would be consistent with a recent slowdown in demand.
There was a bloke on the TV said they'd probably been priced in, another case of Boe being to late to catch a cold, should have been about six months ago when all the sign's were there in the economy stagnating!From a personal point of view, my current mortgage fixed rate deal ends in April.

Love how when the rates go up the banks immediately increase mortgages but when the rates go down it's been priced in.There was a bloke on the TV said they'd probably been priced in, another case of Boe being to late to catch a cold, should have been about six months ago when all the sign's were there in the economy stagnating!
