RT @CeeMacBee: @LiamHalligan @Telegraph Liam, UK inflation is not demand driven, but due to a supply shocks and increased money supply 20/21. Increasing base rates won't change this, but Govt's supply side measures might.
When you wrote this in May, Gas was only 150 per therm, now it is 250 but was 650 in Aug.
The desire to see £ fall is almost palpable from those who wish the UK to fail.
It must be annoying for them to see £ recover this morning.
The point of an independent currency for it to act as a shock absorber.
Growth in the economy with weaker £ will boost exports + FDI
@twoeyedloon @LozzaFox @thereclaimparty And the much trailed reduction in National Insurance
@twoeyedloon @LozzaFox @thereclaimparty There was a huge packet of help for those who need it. Cap on price of fuel for consumers and businesses was a huge intervention; potentially more expensive than furlough. Reduction in basic rate of tax. Ditching of IR35 “reforms”. Doubling of nil band for stamp duty. Etc

@drdavidbull | @benhabib6 | @Mike_Indian
@twoeyedloon @LozzaFox @thereclaimparty Absolutely I would have cut VAT and green levies (both regressive taxes) ahead of the 45% tax rate BUT to trash the budget on that issue is wrong. It’s missing the wood for the trees.
Cutting the 45% is the correct thing to do. Would I have done it now? See above.

@thesageofonion2 @Lakesman5 @KwasiKwarteng Absolutely
RT @CatharineHoey: Good to see the Protocol Bill has been tabled for second reading in the Lords on the second day back October 11th @trussliz staying true to her promises that her Government would facilitate its speedy progress
This is not a mini-budget. The steps announced by @KwasiKwarteng are a seismic, bold, welcome break from 25 years of growth subduing policies and taxes.
The only way out of our debt burden is through growth. Kwasi has set the foundations for our recovery.
RT @Kilsally: Northern Ireland protocol
Labour's @hilarybennmp "what the EU is proposing at the moment is not a solution that would allow a new government to be formed at Stormont; the Commission
needs to move further."

RT @CatharineHoey: And the USA is NOT a Co - guarantor either
RT @JamieBrysonCPNI: Writing in today’s @News_Letter on the extraordinary events in the High Court last week.
The Government want the Court to interpret ‘UK’ as excluding NI (which would instead be viewed as EU territory) to save them having to bear the political cost of amending the actual words.
Do join @JuliaHB1 and me on @TalkTV at 9 am. On all matters EU and of course Northern Ireland.
And to all remainers who feared so chlorinated chicken but now want a deal with the US: Northern Ireland’s place in the UK trumps your new found sensibilities.
