Seems like this wonderful govt are seeing brits leave the country. Who would have thought it.
And something hidden in the small print of the budget is a large increase in flying taxes
24 hours on and most of what I have read is damning about the budget. A bodge it budget apparently.
I cant really remember one so chaotic. All the build up, for which they may have broken ministerial codes, then the OBR cock up. To get so many u turns and non events is ridiculous really. Our country will continue to decline as a result of this budget imo.
I read Badenoch is the winner. Have to admit I didnt think she had that in her. Not my type of politics but when all Labour have to say is it is all the nasty tories fault maybe they need a dose of reality, brutal as it was. For me the winner is most likely Reform. Labour seem to have opened the door even wider to a reset in politics. Shame when they have all the power they could possibly they want they bow down to their back benchers who are clueless.

Whos going to pay for the up keep of migrants now,nearly a million Brits have already left so far, that number is increasing every week.So they will have to stop with the freebies the brand new phones, theatre tickets, Driving lessons and the like, for the majority with three wives we the tax payer pay for universal credit payment plus £90 child benifit each child plus rent heat light and water.
For polygamous marriages considered valid in the UK, an award of certain means-tested benefits and tax credits can be for more than one spouse. Any additional amount payable for the second spouse is however likely to be less than the amount they could get were they to make a separate claim as a single person.
Universal Credit (UC) is replacing means-tested benefits and tax credits for working age people. Polygamous marriages are not recognised in the UC rules. This means that some polygamous households will receive more under UC than they would have under the legacy benefits and tax credits system.

More worried about the tax on milkshakes tbh.
Imagine taxing milkshakes ffs. Govt utterly lost any sense of reality.
Something very strange about back benches in both main parties. When tories were struggling the mp's wanted to go more extreme right, now labour struggling and there MP's want to go more left which in both cases is the opposite to the majority of the voters
It's just an extension of the sugar tax isn't it? Irn Bru doing their nut over boarder.
Wife goes mad about that, only likes normal coke not the sugar free etc, not overweight or any issues but has to pay extra when she buys one, about £4 diff for a pack of 24 in shops
I’m right though. You are an activist for a party led by a man who thought Hitler was right.
Hearing about migrants being responsible for everything including the common cold is more tiresome. Farage and Yusuf suggesting we’ve got no money because of them while they tax dodge is laughable. ‘Look at them so you don’t notice what we’re doing’ while you do their leg work.
Whatever she did I doubt some on here would give any credit.
If milk shakes are the angst of the right on here it must not have been a bad budget.
As aside a dentist I know often speaks of vapes, tabs and sugar and the like on oral hygiene so can’t be a bad thing.
Non dom billionaires and the like are putting a fortune into manipulating public opinion. Look at comments from working class people on here - it works
There is just as many labour as well though, we need a new second chamber WHAT i don't know
Greens are just the extreme labour supporters though led by an absolute two face clown
It stinks across politics. I’d argue it’s why we didnt get a proper wealth tax yesterday but they are bankrolling Reform who are offering a cash back tax free deal for funding their party.
But they are getting more popular. In fact the Lib Dem’s have also gone up a couple of points. They have a strong argument on the economy. Customs union with the EU and immediately boost the economy rather than all this messing around.
