🤦‍♀️this lot spent years cutting bus services. Odd how now they are so keen for others to step in, having done nothing themselves to improve public transport! Looking forward to their support for GCP proposals!

RT @borofergie: So let’s be clear, the Conservatives were warned EXACTLY what would happen if they chose Truss as their leader. This from Rishi Sunak;

RT @LibDems: Yet again, struggling people across the country are being let down by new tax hikes from the Conservatives while banks and big business get tax cuts.

RT @EdnaMurphy12: Only wealthy benefit from minibudget, all others lose. Currency trashed. Interest rates will push up mortgages. Inflation already causing misery with cost of living with more to come. A budget for the 'have & have yachts'?
Tory govt incompetent, ideological, vile.

RT @IanSollom: It would be nice to think that the gov’t take this kind of statement from the IMF seriously.

I fear they will be as dismissive as they apparently are of all economic ‘orthodoxy’.

RT @LibDems: If you work in a shop or a factory, in an office, in the health service, if you're a teacher - your taxes are going up.

It's only if you're earning more than £155,000 that you're going to see your taxes cut.

That's wrong and it shows this government is totally out of touch.

Pretty damning from the pubic as well as the markets. Unfair AND ineffective. 🤦‍♀️
RT @YouGov: How effective, if at all, do you think the measures the Chancellor has announced will be at growing the British economy?

RT @lornadupre: So Anthony Browne posts this video of him standing in a street with a modal filter, which is why there's no congestion, and claims there's no congestion in Cambridge. Then switches off comments when residents queue up to call him out for this obvious charade. Stay classy Anthony.

RT @mikegalsworthy: The pound also tanked against the Euro yesterday.

This is the situation this morning (one week view):

RT @KimSJ: When I was young, the pound was steadily worth around $2.40. I remember it well, because an old penny had parity with the cent! It last hit that level in 1980. That’s how far we have fallen in four decades of poor Governance and no industrial strategy.
