    “Needless to say, it later emerged that the #minibudget was explicitly designed to force the #BoR to raise interest rates faster than it was by pushing up market interest rates further; to claim that they were not sent warnings that such a course of action would imperil financial stability is highly misleading and should be called out.” From #ThickLizzie to #LyingLizzie in one paragraph #toryliescostlives #torytraitors #erg #55TuftonStreet #PutinsToryPuppets #gtto

  5. 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.
