ANDY BURNHAM MUST GIVE BRITAIN AN IDEOLOGY, NOT ANOTHER MANAGEMENT CONSULTANT’S POWERPOINT by Lawson Akhigbe
There was something important about Andy Burnham's intervention at Prime Minister's Questions. Not simply because of what he said, but because of what it appeared to recognise: Britain has not merely been badly governed. Britain has been travelling in the wrong ideological direction for decades. -
Back to Basics, Rebranded: Burnham’s High Streets and the Politics of Looking Busy by Lawson Akhigbe
John Major's government never intended "Back to Basics" to become a punchline. Launched in 1993 as a pitch for moral and civic renewal, family values, personal responsibility, respect for the old certainties, it was retail politics in the purest sense: cheap to announce, easy to photograph, and entirely disconnected from the actual machinery of governing a mid-sized post-imperial economy adjusting to the ERM's wreckage. Section 28 sat quietly in the background as inherited scaffolding for this mood music, and the Education Act 1993's sex-education clauses supplied a fresh, deniable coat of paint. None of it required legislative heavy lifting. All of it signalled seriousness to an audience that wanted reassurance more than reform. The scheme collapsed, memorably, when half the cabinet turned out to be failing the basics they were instructed to return to. -
Fiscal responsibility and tax cuts
Needless to say most Americans are not aware of all this, don’t actually care and have no idea of the crisis we are possibly facing living on debt. We are headed to a very precarious place. As of late August 2026 Total national debt - Over $40 trillion Debt held by the public - About $32.3 trillion Intragovernmental debt - About $7.8 trillion Projected FY 2026 deficit - About $1.9 trillion Deficit as % of GDP - 5.8% Projected net interest cost, FY 2026 - About $1.0 trillion Debt […]https://quinnscommentary.net/2026/09/02/fiscal-responsibility-and-tax-cuts/

"the obvious truth that from the presidency on down, the #Republican Party has a cataclysmic record when it has power...
“Jobs are just one factor. The performance of the #StockMarket under #Democrats is much, much stronger than under #Republicans. The increases in median household income & amount by which they’ve reduced the #deficit are much greater... The comparisons aren’t close, but you never hear any Democrats talk about it.”

AP’s coverage∶
The #NationalDebt surpassed a record $40 trillion Wednesday, a staggering milestone as #defense costs, #social programs like #SocialSecurity & #Medicare & interest on the burgeoning #deficit to make up an enormous share of federal spending.
The milestone figure was recorded just 5 months after the US hit a record $39 trillion debt in March. It reached $38 trillion 5 months before that, in October [all under #Trump’s watch].

Trump’s Broken Promises, in 11 Charts

2. Federal Budget #Deficit
3. #NationalDebt

Once upon a time, it was an absolute political and economical scandal when the US government ran up an annual deficit of a trillion dollars. [1]
Under Trump's tax cuts for the rich and bloated spending for his pet projects and well-connected contractors, the USA just ran up a $432 billion deficit ... in July. In one month. At that rate, you're looking at an annual deficit in the five trillion dollar range.
The accumulated debt is "only" 40 trillion or so, for what that's worth.
The USA will *never* repay this debt. It's not possible. And in the current political system, they will not get their budget deficits under control - no chance, at all.
How do they keep the money train going, you ask? It's because other countries park their money in US Treasury bonds and other US-denominated holdings. There is a built-in demand for US currency that doesn't depend on financial performance of the USA at all. This demand has existed ever since the end of the Bretton Woods system.
And it's primarily because of oil.
If you ignore the the recent Russian sanctioned oil sales (via their shadow fleet of tankers) to India and some other countries, essentially all oil is traded in US dollars.

FROM NOW ON, EVERY TIME I MEET A T**** SUPPORTER...
...I will ask them to name the things that (they believe) made the #Carter Administration "a failed presidency." 🤔
WE will be able to add: "Exploding the #Debt #Deficit, depleting our weapons stockpile, repeated violations of the #Constitution, accepting Hundreds of Millions in #emoluments/bribes, inciting a treasonous attack on our Capitol, alienating our allies, #ConcentrationCamps, and leaving the WH & #ReflectingPool an absolute mess."

Russian banks run out of money to cover budget deficit
#Russian #banks currently have no free #rouble liquidity to buy federal loan bonds, which #Russia's Ministry of #Finance uses to cover the budget #deficit.
Banks’ #money is urgently needed by the budget, which ended the first half of the year with a deficit of RUB 5.7 trillion (US$72 billion) and faced overspending on the #war in #Ukraine.

The U.S. National Debt – How Single Year Budgeting And Funding Cycles Lead To Unmanageable Government
By Ken Larson
Having dealt with the funding process in the government contracting industry (both large and small business) for over 40 years, I can discuss with some credibility a major weakness in the huge machine we call the US Federal Government — the one year budget cycle.
A huge reason for much of the largess in the National Debt is the fiscal year funding agony in which the US Government is entrenched. Shutdowns, delays and spoon feeding funds to areas as vital as the environment, national defense and healthcare must cease.___________________________________________________________________________________________________
About mid-summer every agency begins to get paranoid about whether or not they have spent all their money, worried about having to return some and be cut back the next year. They flood the market with sources sought notifications and open solicitations to get the money committed. Many of these projects are meaningless.
Then during the last fiscal month (September) proposals are stacked up all over the place and everything is bottle-necked. If you are a small business trying to get the paperwork processed and be under contract before the new fiscal year starts you are facing a major challenge.
Surely the one year cycle has become a ludicrous exercise we can no longer afford and our government is choking on it. It is a political monstrosity that occurs too frequently to be managed effectively.
Government must lay out a formal baseline over multiple years (I suggest at least 2 fiscal years – ideally 4 – tied to a presidential election) – then fund in accordance with it and hold some principals in the agencies funded accountable by controlling their spending incrementally – not in an annual panic mode.
Naturally exigencies can occur, such as COVID and unanticipated world events like the Russian invasion of Ukraine. A management reserve can be set aside if events mandate scope changes in the baseline due to unforeseen circumstances. Congress could approve such baseline changes as they arise.
There is a management technique for the above that DOD, NASA and the major agencies require by regulation in large government contracts. It is called “Earned Value Management” and it came about as a result of some of the biggest White Elephant overruns in Defense Department History. Earned Value Management Systems

We have one of the biggest White Elephants ever in front of us (a National Debt exceeding $39 Trillion) National Debt Clock. We must get this mess under control, manage our finances and our debt or it will manage us into default. -
This is what many Americans call socialism…
this is what they don’t want their taxes paying for. This is what Project 2025 and the Trump administration say need to be cut, and what individual responsibility and empowerment should take care of. These are some of the programs many Americans say are used by lazy loafers who don’t want to work. And, no, nobody pays for their own Social Security and Medicare benefits - Both are a collective risk using an insurance concept.
