Mixed message from Reeves is threat to economic confidence
Her policy approach seems equally confused
https://nitter.privacydev.net/TheGreenParty
is clear: we need investment
In infrastructure, public services, home insulation, green transition
The only route to economic success

😔 UK consumer confidence takes drastic fall
😠 Labour posturing around ‘tough decisions’ is undermining economic sentiment
🤦🏻♀️ Undermining the economy is the last thing a chancellor should do
💚 What we need is investment, fair taxes and optimism

'under-investment has resulted in a vicious circle of stagnation and decline and greater social and environmental problems'
For our health, wealth, and happiness, we urgently need investment
Reeves must abandon her commitment to further austerity

'Starmer’s swift rejection of EU priorities such as establishing a youth mobility scheme and rejoining Erasmus has gone down badly in European capitals and is taking a toll on early optimism about the new British government'
Such a shame; such a waste

‘real choice is between a chaotic, punitive system based on political dishonesty, and a well-managed one that works, taking advantage of our good fortune in being a place that can draw people from around the world’

'Dozens reported dead after Israeli strike on Gaza school'
We've got a Labour govt now but what's changed?
What pressure are they using to urge an immediate ceasefire?
What are they doing to put pressure on the US to stop this horror?

Labour could borrow to invest in our future energy: this would really be Great British Energy
But I fear that they will choose to turn the green economy into a massive PFI scheme

The worst sort of dishonest political theatre from Reeves
And a betrayal of those who voted
https://nitter.privacydev.net/UKLabour
in hope that it would bring *change*
Instead it’s more of the same Tory public spending orthodoxy
And more of the same dishonest politics

Labour's 'national wealth fund' is anything but
An impressive name for a curtailed investment programme in the green economy
A real wealth fund would mean renewable energy belonged to us all via public, municipal and community ownership
