The Tories risk leaving Labour with no money left after the election-the £28 billion green fund might be a “rounding error” in Treasury speak , but that is why the Treasury needs reform. Rounding errors add up. It’s our money, not the government’s

RT by @john4brexit: This is utter tosh... 🙄
I know it suits many people - including the regulators - to blame the LDI crisis on Liz Truss, but let's just look at this £425 billion figure.
It refers to the fall in the value of DB pension fund assets over 2022 as a whole - most of which occurred well before #Truss became PM!
To be precise, asset values fell by £346 billion in the first half of the year, as rising interest rates (globally) hit the prices of bonds and property.

RT by @john4brexit: Indeed! As the same table shows and the report discusses further, pension fund surpluses actually increased over the year (in aggregate, at least).

Labour hints at protecting public sector from pension tax- OUTRAGEOUS that Labour should hammer private sector workers but protect the public sector who already enjoy gold plated final salary schemes at taxpayer expense. Socialists don’t change.

Of the so-called “five giants” – evils that William Beveridge set out to slay with his 1942 report – were ignorance, disease, squalor, want and idleness. Of these idleness is making a come back & the country will be poorer for it.

Keir Starmer has forgotten the lessons of the banking crash- Labour’s Blairite love in with banks also forgets the 85% of businesses that are family owned or run and that manufacturing is a larger share of the economy than banking plus financial services

My five rules to make conservatism popular. It is innovation & prosperity that made Britain great. We are no 27 & falling in GDP (ppp) per person. No1 priority for Conservatives is growth & prosperity. Mr Hague et al is part of the problem.

Who’s afraid of population growth?- IT IS NO USE having immigration where the migrants are predominantly not adding to production and wealth, that just makes the majority poorer. Similarly a threat to culture and values is a major problem.
