Yup and it's only a matter of time before the unelected PM gets booted out. How Rishi or Hunt thought the budget was going to make people change their mind is beyond me, the clock is ticking and no matter how long they drag it out, the inevitable day will come. I've always made my thoughts clear on tax cutting, it shouldn't be happening, and reducing NI, just means it's less in another pot, which is just the same pot by a different name. I'm no particular fan of Labour, but I'm prepared to see what they've got, for me it's two choices, voting Labour or not voting at all, I've got a long six months to decide in, many voters with probably the same thoughts I expect, just keep off the brexit topic (I've no problem with trading relations, like the old common market).
I've said this before (probably when they were going to increase NI to pay for Social Care) but imo NI should be scrapped as it gets you pretty much nothing these days and is just a tax on working . Just increase income tax to make up the shortfall as that is the fairest of all general taxes
I dont think they give a **** now tbh they know they are done so just scraping every last penny from the country before doing so.

Hunt also closed the loophole he took advantage of buying his 7 blocks of flats in one go, he said it was being taken advantage of was his reason
The most corrupt government this now 3rd world **** hole we live in has ever had bar none.
I agree about income tax. I've posted before how raising tax bands would've been a better approach.
Just to add to what you've posted, I'm concerned about the non-dom status loopholes. Not concerned about them being abolished, or that the Tories have pinched it off Labour.
What concerns me is that if it was a choice between using the billions raised for tax cuts or going towards public services, I want the latter. Now that choice has been taken away. That money imo will be wasted and will not be available for what I feel is needed far more. It pisses me off tbh bcos it's cynical from this government, they've deliberately done it as a fck you to Labour and it's public services that will pay the price.
Whilst at the same time lining someone's pocket no doubt. We aint seeing that money.
Yeh Its gone mate, Already siphoned off to some tory doner, or maybe rishi is lining up another government contract for his family's company. Criminals
You could always get in a boat and leave but you wouldn't, because you wouldn't survive in a real 3rd world shhite hole, you'd just be crying all the time.

It's why he never goes to Liverpool to watch them play
A mate of mine had his invalidity benefit stopped when he was 64, because the DSS passed him fit to fill shelves in Sainsbury’s (with two ****ed knees and a frozen shoulder). He pointed out he qualified for his state pension in a year, so they reinstated his benefit for a year.
That was 5 years ago, wouldn’t work now, we’re all expected to work till we ****ing drop. We’re getting mugged off in this country, basically.
The OBR projects economic output to expand by 1.9% in 2025 and by 2.0% in 2026, Hunt said as he gave his budget statement speech to parliament. Those forecasts were slightly stronger than the OBR's previous expectations for growth of 1.4% and 2.0% in 2025 and 2026
The UK will be Europe’s best-performing major economy in the next 15 years, narrowing the gap with Germany and extending its lead over France, according to new long-run forecasts.
Yeah, sounds like it
Tbh, I’m glad the Tories are going out but to say Hunt hasn’t done a decent job from the **** he followed is just wrong. He could have quite easily abolished IHT for example which would have benefited his mates and he was under pressure to do so but he resisted it. It’s up to Labour now to carry it on and not **** it up this time.

The words of a guy who has never experienced a 3rd world country. He should nip across to Jamaica and see the real struggle some people have living.
