With respect you keep making claims - not me. Now it’s numerous people! Yet you can’t name one?

Surely “weak stuff” would be a person making accusations and then not having the bollocks to name names?

Strange

I thought the people on here obsessed with immigration would have at least passed comment on it going down by 70%. I guess not?

So you think this is good news and we need to massively reduce migration

Well clearly having a net entry of nearly a million people in a year isn’t sustainable and I’ve said many times that I want the country not to rely on importing foreign labour.

Do you think it’s a big step in the right direction?

I see Reeves announced lower energy bills but she is robbing Peter to pay Paul because the costs will be transferred to even higher income tax rates, tax payers pay more and more. This lie Labour told about taking £300 of electricity bills is going to be met by increasing the basic rate of income tax to 25% isn't it.

Those who work pay more
Those who chose not to work continue to take the piss.

Tbf, Starmer wanted to overhaul the welfare system, but was shot down by the wanker back benchers who are purely interested in maintaining their own seats, and couldnt give a fuck about the economy.

Despite the headline of business rate reductions for some businesses, a lot of pubs have had their RV increased significantly so will be paying more. Reeves genuinely does not have a clue about managing an economy, her background of fucking about in the BOE is her problem not her advantage.

No Pete, it’s tax thresholds being frozen for another 3 years pushing people into higher tax brackets.

Teachers and nurses will be dragged into the 40% tax bracket as will more and more earners. As will lower income workers start paying tax when they shouldn’t be.

The average employee and employer putting 6% into pension pot will also be taxed on contributions after £2k.

Whilst private sector workers have wages suppressed by the governments tax hikes last year, it’s only public sector workers and benefits claimants who get rises above inflation (driven up by government policies). Deeply unfair.
