  5. Reeves says her plan is working as growth forecast cut for this year

    Female barista wearing a black T-shirt operating a coffee machine Chancellor Rachel Reeves has said her economic plan…

  6. Interestingly in the budget (demonstrating yet again the contradictions that Rachel Reeves seems to favour), the tax rate on the interest earned on savings was raised for all by 2%, while reducing the cash ISA limit (for the under 65 year olds, we over 65s can still pay in £20k a year into our cash ISAs)... so, rather than discourage cash savers from using Cash ISAs, the tax on savings makes the Cash ISA even more advantageous... ah well.

  7. CW: UKpol: Marina Hyde on Starmer, Reeves and the budget

    "Tell you what Rachel Reeves won't raise: fuel duty on circus vehicles."

    Marina Hyde applies her finest gallows humour to the state of UK Labour: the strategic vacuity and tactical incompetence of the Starmer team, and the dizzying pre-budget disintegration of Reeves's autumn budget.

    As far as UK Labour is concerned, gallows humour is all we are left with.

  8. ha ha ha.... looks like Jeremy Hunt is about to be shafted by the OBR.

    Make enemies while you're in Govt. see them stitch you up when you're in opposition....

    I so hope they do a really good job on budget day of skewering the self-satisfied little b*stard!

  9. Great letter from Professor John Muellbauer in the FT, on why Rachel Reeves recalibrated fiscal rules should include land values held by the state.... and how this could then be used too help fund Angela Rayner's plans for the expansion of social housing....

  10. Zombie policy ahoy:

    the FT is reporting, despite their lacklustre performance as engines of regional growth in the past (and when I say lacklustre, I mean negligible), another five Freeport's look like being announced next week in the budget....

    When there a real polices that could be enacted, why does our political class still think Freeport's are the 'answer' to anything (other than money laundering & tax evasion..... oh wait..)

    Its a policy that just won\t die

  11. From @premnsikka on :birdsite: :

    'Autumn Statement: Some 600,000 people on universal credit will effectively be forced to work - a form of conscription on its way.

    How fit are these people? What skills they have? Are they carers? What happens to the ones they care for?
    This will turn nasty.'
