RT by @JeanLambertLDN: It’s clear that work - especially f/t stable work - protects ppl from negative budgets. But this protection is waning. Since 2019, % of people we see in work and in a negative budget has gone up for all employment types, including 12% for full-time workers https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/15017638/

RT by @JeanLambertLDN: NEW A higher outlook for inflation since the Budget in March means that the Government’s six-year freeze to Income Tax and National Insurance thresholds is set to raise £40 billion a year by the time it is fully rolled out in 2027-28, making it Britain’s biggest tax rise in at least 50 years

RT by @JeanLambertLDN: Sunak & Meloni set out their preference to provide asylum on basis of their invitation only rather than individual’s need & right to it. But that’s not law to which their nations are signatories - a law that still doesn’t demand disproportionately of them.

This is so deeply confused, even on its own terms. Jenrick suggests a quick processing time encourages people to come. This is obviously false, as evidenced by the fact the numbers have risen as the backlog spun out of control.

The London Economic: Immigration minister Robert Jenrick says if you process the claims of asylum seekers more quickly that encourages more people to come.

While ministers distract with prison boats and anti-lawyer rhetoric, they quietly and deliberately manage the criminal justice system into terminal decline.
Record backlogs, record delays - and a quarter of all Crown Courts unable to operate due to a lack of judges and lawyers.
