“Labour ditches day-one protection from unfair dismissal in U-turn”. This is disappointing. I hope the remainder of the Employment Rights Bill will now be passed. And for the record, I disagree with the Peers in my party in the House of Lords who have been trying to water down the Bill.
Labour ditches day-one protection from unfair dismissal in U-turn
The right will now be introduced after six months, in a breach of Labour's election manifesto.

Ed Davey on #BBCBreakfast talking plain sense once again, mainly about the damage Brexit has done and continues to do, and what Labour 'should' have done in the budget. Easily the best party leader in Westminster right now.

Genuinely good bit of government policy this.
Let's take a moment to applaud the fact the two-child limit has been scrapped, a measure which has been described as "the worst social policy ever", writes @ruthpatrick0.bsky.social for @prospectmagazine.co.uk /1

At last: a budget that ends the two-child limit
The government should be applauded for scrapping the cruel policy, but tackling poverty requires more

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:
1. Break up corporate monopolies
2. Continue building union power
3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics
Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

The #Budget2025 was fair and satisfactory.
I am glad to see the two-child benefit cap scrapped and I am glad to see the introduction of a mansions tax. Two things I have supported for many years.
However, I do not support the increase of taxes on electric vehicles and on employee-owned businesses.

Badenoch belittles sexist attacks. She bullies Reeves. She argues that children should continue to live in poverty by maintaining the two-child benefit cap, while arguing that the wealthy should not have to pay a mansion tax.

And honestly I don't give a fuck if it's popular or not. It's going to make a lot of kids' lives better. That's the point of government. Not an opinion poll.

Whatever else this government do (and there's plenty of issues with this budget) ministers will always be able to point to this as an incredible important contribution to the country's future. Almost half a million kids taken out of poverty.
Scrapping the two-child limit in full is a monumental decision. Well done to all involved in the Child Poverty Strategy, and everyone who has made the case against the policy.
OBR says scrapping costs £3 billion in 2029-30 and will lift 450,000 out of poverty

Let’s put aside the schooldays accusations and look, instead, at the Reform leader’s path since then. I think a pretty clear picture of the man emerges, says author and podcaster Musa Okwonga
