Cuts Without Funding: The mini-budget proposed substantial tax cuts, including a reduction in the top rate of income tax and the cancellation of a planned corporation tax rise. These cuts were estimated to cost around £45 billion. Crucially, these cuts

The problem with hating democracy as much as you do, Andrea, is that today the anti-democratic movement is aligned with your hatred. Tomorrow, you may find yourself at the receiving end of it.
I doubt you’ll get the meaning of my post, but hopefully, others will.

@Nigel_Farage
I know plenty of people who shudder, cringe and shake their head at the mere mention of the name “Farage”.
The majority of the country who despise him.
Look at the 2019 general elections - count the votes and you’ll clearly see that people wanted either a confirmative

Yes. They should be allowed to vote because that is democracy.
What shouldn’t be allowed is for Politicians to make unsubstantiated claims in order to get votes.
@fliceverett
Judges don’t speak for anyone. Their job is to uphold the law. If a group of people agrees with the judge it’s because they agree with the law.
Now my personal opinion: climate change is an issue that cannot be left to individuals - it is Governments that need to prevent

The Bank of England changes interest rates to control inflation by making borrowing more expensive or cheaper. When inflation is high, they raise interest rates so people borrow less and save more, reducing spending and cooling down prices. When inflation is low, they lower

shop looks amazing! Seeing tons of plastic removed from the shelves has made my day! Be absolutely proud of yourselves guys!
(Oh and the veggie-butchers are amazing!)
In 2009 I lost my job during the recession and was counting the pennies to buy food for Xmas dinner.
Fast forward 10 years and I’m cursing the fridge for not being large enough to contain all the food that 3 of us are going to eat over two days.
I don’t deserve what I have.
@BladeoftheS
If he’s got the following he’s got is because people are genuinely worried and while we’re too busy calling them names, Farage is making them feel heard.
I’ve had very constructive and engaging conversations with Reform UK supporters and the common denominator seems to be that

I’ve just done the research you suggested and found a much (MUCH!) lower amount. Would you mind sharing the advert you found? I doubt you got the right amount, but if you have, I agree, this is wrong - much as I value and promote diversity myself.
Looking forward to the

I feel for him for not understanding what he was voting for. To many of us it was clear as day that Leaving the EU would destroy the UK fishing industry.
Many fishermen, unfortunately, didn’t realise that British people don’t like/eat fish and their industry depended on being

C’mon guys - enough with spreading misinformation. The Winter Fuel Payment has NOT been scrapped. I repeat: it has NOT been scrapped.
It’s just been turned into a means-tested payment. If you need it, you’ll get it, if you don’t, you won’t.
@PaulBrandITV
It’s not tricky for them at all.
They’ve built their entire party on telling lies while everyone is listening, knowing full well that by the time the truth is out, people will have moved on.
They’ve achieved what they set out to achieve. And it worked.

How is a solar farm against “human rights”? And since when is a conservative politician interested in human rights?! Asking for a friend.
I used to love the UK flag. I remember when I moved to the UK more than 2 decades ago, I had t-shirts with it, pillowcases, cufflinks, you name it! If you wanted to sell me anything, you just needed to stick a 🇬🇧 on it and my cash would be yours in no time.
“🇬🇧” meant “Our

Whether I agree (or not) with either of them, I’m actually pleased they were able to share a moment of humanity.
We are where we are because of polarising political posturing.
I pray for the day leaders of opposing parties find a way to share common ground.
For too long we’ve
