“Isn’t it significant that Rachel Reeves used her big TV moment to attack the Greens? She knows huge numbers of people really find what we are offering attractive.”

Rachel Reeves’ 2025 Budget has already collapsed under the weight of its own contradictions. In this video, I explain why tax rises on ordinary people, baseless growth forecasts, and a refusal to tax wealth fairly mean this Budget will fail. youtu.be/xvdFsOT6WPk?...

“The Motability scheme was set up to protect the most vulnerable. Not to subsidise the lease on a Mercedes Benz,” Reeves says.

Misleading and nasty in equal measure.

Rachel Reeves can't "tackle the cost of living crisis" in her budget today without tackling PRIVATISATION

It means YOU pay an extra tax on
- your bills 💧💡
- your council tax 🧓🚸
- investment in your public services 🏥🏫

Time to end the 40 year rip off

The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population.

How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich?

They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social wants to introduce a wealth tax of 1% on assets of over £10m & 2% on assets over £1bn & if the super rich want to leave the UK because they are being taxed a tiny amount more then we should wave them goodbye

Thatcherite John Redwood says 1% isn't a tiny amount.

If a just and lasting peace is to be secured, it is Ukrainian voices - not Donald Trump's, not those of Russian aggressors - which need to be front and centre in all discussions on Ukraine's future.

Millionaires want a wealth tax!

Delighted to host Gary Stevenson in Parliament to talk about his work with MPs.

We discussed how raising annual revenue through wealth taxes is the most important thing Govt could do in the budget to cut inequality and raise living standards.

What would the Green Party do at the Budget?

💡 Cut energy bills by ending profiteering
🚰 Cut water bills by bringing water into public hands
🏠 Give councils the power to control rents
🚸 Lift the two-child benefit cap and extend free school meals to all

Cut Bills. Tax Billionaires.

5 minutes into Laura Kuensberg show, and I'm already fuming. Haldane & Hunt have no issues with millions of kids living in poverty. Kuensberg has already referred to a "mythical credit card" without mentioning we can create as much money as we need via the govts ways and means account with BOE
