The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

Thanks for your directions but I'm not a Labour voter. And I don't think can choose who can and can't post on this thread.

So who's trotting out the excuses now?

Explanation does not equal excuse!

Cringe 😬😬😬

Excuse me @Tainiz ? My post is just a statement of fact.

The markets and business are in turmoil because nobody knows what is going to happen next, gilt yields are at a 30 year high, sterling is struggling, unemployment is on the rise and they are twiddling their thumbs till Christmas waiting for a hail Mary.

Would madam be better served on a pro-Labour thread?

Everyday this dishonest Distinctions government gets worse. Now AR being dishonest and duplicitous with SDLT. RR is a disaster and seems to have no financial knowledge whatsoever. Only she could put up NIC on businesses then seem shocked so many businesses going bust and unemployment up. Both AR and RR should be sacked. Both put of their depth.

😂😂😂😂😂

I laughed too, love the tone.

I just saw it and thought that😂😂😂😂

A Labour luvvie acquaintance is shocked and annoyed that the garage that serviced her car has gone out of business due to ULEZ (for those not in London it’s a tax on people with cars -and notably vans - a few years old that doesn’t affect those people who can buy new ones) and the increasing charges on small businesses.
She asked me to recommend one and I have have (another small business) but she is annoyed they can’t guarantee what the price of the service will be next year…
Well, that’s what you voted for, luv!
She has always been a civil servant - nuff said…

The telegraph reports that Streeting believes "it would be a 'travesty' if Rayner had to resign". The vultures are circling. You can practically hear the airquotes.

A bucket of cheap Rosé😂😂 We should think ourselves lucky.. It’ll be a bucket of Irn-Bru thus time next year.

And re Rayner -who needs a tax accountant?
When you buy a house, your solicitor tells you how much you need to pay and you pay your solicitor who sends it on to HMRC. My solicitor told me I need to pay x more because I owned another property so I just paid that to the solicitor. No need for a ‘tax accountant’ unless you need to be more creative…

Streeting cont...

“And I think back on the first year of this Labour Government, and I think back on the first year of this Labour Government, I think back on so many of the things I’m most proud of, and so many have Angela Rayner’s fingerprints on it.”

Smells like a eulogy

😂😂

Sounds like post theft 😂

😂

Fingerprints?

On a vape and a wine glass, no?

Is that a direct quote from Streeting?

Ouch! Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Angela.

And Keir, watch your back.. 🔪

Yes, speaking on five live.

An ambitious little nugget, isn’t he?

It's subtle, it followed him saying it was an honest mistake and she's had a hard life. He's like one of those mean friends who asks in concerned tones if you are getting enough sleep. But we all know the bitch beneath the head tilt.

Is AR going to be like a candle in the wind!

A frenemy, if you will….
