If only there were some way for the government to have more money coming. If only our nation were able to raise more money to pay for things, like the living wage. If only they could find extra money to make other things cheaper and help people and businesses thrive - but alas I think that’s impossible- there simply isn’t another way ….. Hang on !!!!!

How has fascism in Britain got this far? Neoliberalism has opened the door for it
theguardian.com/commentisfree/
Why seek to nix the financial regulations inspired by the 2008 crash, when the likely result is a repeat performance? Why reject a wealth tax, when a 2% levy on assets of over £10m could raise £24bn a year? Why not adopt the measures proposed by Patriotic Millionaires, generating £60bn a year? Or those suggested by political economist Richard Murphy, worth £90bn in tax revenue? Why abandon plans to tax non-doms properly? Why not demand an end to the Bank of England’s destructive quantitative tightening?

Link to The Guardian Neoliberalism destroys democratic hope and the far right fills the political void. We need a new politics of belonging, not Labour’s craven appeasement of capital.

See? Rachael Reeves and her underling Mr Jones who regard PIP as ‘pocket money’ should be made personally responsible for this poor mans death in awful circumstances.
Reinstate those cuts to disabled benefits now. It was an abhorrent thing to do; and it;s going to cost a lot more lives.

About time, these bloody scroungers. Why can’t kids get a job like normal people - All of them are also immigrants from their mums womb as well. I didn’t vote Brexit for ‘kids’ to take all the money that bus gives to the NHS like Boris & Nige said. 
Kids, where were they in two world wars, bring back the workhouse

In her Spring Statement yesterday, Chancellor Rachel Reeves made several significant technology announcements. These announcements focused primarily on digital transformation and AI and on enhancing public services and, ultimately making the public sector more productive.
