No? Do you think that the economy is something we can just fix by christmas after our public services being dismantled over 14 years?

[sidgb]

At this point in time the speculation on what will be in this budget is getting ridiculous. They’ll tax your pets, your fruit and any other nonsense.
Personally I remember the last labour government taxes didn’t change much but we definitely got something in return like new hospitals, schools and roads not full of potholes.

The conservatives haven’t built a single hospital but always promised they would 14 years in power not one they’re a joke.

[jamesduffy]

Tories were allowed to blame the previous government for 14 years. Labour have to have everything perfect and fixed by christmas. The british media, folks

[mangosamosa]

Tom thinking we're still in the Truss era.

[JamesRicketts-yy]

After 3 months of hints of what is coming and a full honest report on the expectations by independent analysts there is no reason to think the market will be spooked, there will be tax rises for the top 30% and no increase in taxes on people on average or below incomes unless they have to pay capital gains tax on their shares.

Will he go if his prediction is incorrect. Prediction based his perception of other peoples ideas. Nice work if you can get at his salary,

If truss was the lettuce, reeves is the cabbage.😂😂😂

[dottyp]

I think she’s doing the right thing. If she can make more money than she borrowed with investments over the course. Austerity is not working, our country is on its knees. Let’s try something else.

[Hannah-xxix]

Hopefully you’ll be gone by Halloween Swarthick

[markhyde]

It won't go wrong and she won't be gone by Christmas. Infact, it'll be quite the opposite

[testudohorsfieldii]

That was a party political broadcast by the Conservative Party and Telegraph Newspaper

*If*

She has the backing of all the major financial institutions in this.

[just]

If there was any risk you would have seen the £ moving already! You can't be this uninformed!? 🤷🏻‍♀️

[ffsytube]

Seems a bit silly to think you can fix 14 years in 2 months

[leefisher]

We have a SPENDING PROBLEM.

We do not have a TAXATION PROBLEM.

[canny_linguist]

We've only had a Labour government for 20 weeks or so. I'm guessing he must be gutted the Tories got wiped.

[molsy]

Not true at all. Reeves holds more power in the party than Kier does.

The reason Kier seems so limp wristed is because he's just a middleman between two seperate groups of politcians

[tonytricks]

She isn't Liz Truss though, she'll have checked her numbers, surely.

[matthewmcnicholas]

I'm sick of the markets dictating the perpetual decline of our country.

[darren-upvo]

There is no growth we are on a downward decline all the figures are made to look positive just about
