Fascinated by this woman’s media diet, because I met so many people like her from 2010 to 2015, the first time Labour proposed a mansion tax, yet she claims to have voted Labour all her life until now. Did she just live in seclusion for five years?

Plus sides to today: Two-child benefit scrapped. Largely progressive tax implications. Good market reaction. No big spending cuts. Nightmare prospect of cutting funding to net zero etc avoided. It's a left-wing budget. Those who say there's no difference between Labour and Tories are bananas.

An example of how higher ed looms like a demon in Blue Labour thought: this reads like Glasman sees in the expansion of HE a social evil comparable to the destruction of British industry in the 1980s

Presumably pre-publication would allow more robust scrutiny in Parliament as MPs would be able to read it and prepare questions beforeha- oh, I see why British governments don't like the idea

Am enjoying BBC pundits' heads exploding over something that is entirely normal in Europe. Pretty sure the German budget (in draft, so not even decided) is just a press release...

Trump said similar things about Starmer in July 2024. Doesn't matter about politics - he admires anyone who can win big, get a landslide - something Trump himself never managed
