I remember a few years ago thinking Truss was the biggest moron to ever hold a senior ministerial position. **** me, things escalated quickly. I hear they have to employ an assistant for the cabinet office to operate the doorknob these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not announce prize freezes on essential items ? If I may say so, this post seems a little...inconsistent - Cutting levies to keep prices the same is "pointless", yet you advocate freezing prices? Given that there are certain commodities where the cost has rocketed, and thus the overall VAT and tax take to the Gov't has also rocketed, they could cut the percentage tax and still be no worse off, yet the price to us lot would (as you say) perhaps stay the same as it was, or not rise as much. Seems like a no brainer to me - same as with the idea of windfall taxes. Someone making huge unexpected gains from a thing get taxed on that huge gain, and the money used to help people who are struggling. It would be nice, too, if the Gov't used the tax system to really push investment into alternative energy (renewables), insulation, domestic storage of gas, energy efficiency measures generally and so on. That would have huge long term benefits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ml1dch Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 (edited) A reminder of the new Chancellor's hobbies... Quote A government minister has been reprimanded by No 10 for attending a men-only gala that led to allegations of sexual harassment and groping. Children and families minister Nadhim Zahawi said he attended The Presidents Club fundraiser but left early. The BBC understands Mr Zahawi was called to Downing Street on Wednesday to meet chief whip Julian Smith. Prime Minister Theresa May said she accepted Mr Zahawi's explanation, but was "appalled" at reports of the event.

Will be even funnier when the Tories are booted out of office with the reputation for spending all the monies. Can Norway borrow him for just a day, please?

Jareth Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 It's all very embarrassing and damaging for the tories - it's delicious. Sadly it'll be over next week when the 1922 elects new members, change the rules and hold the vote of no confidence all in a couple of days. Meanwhile enjoy the clown show!
