£26 billion tax rise announced today in Labour's budget
£90 billon, how much tax revenue is lost because of Brexit EVERY Year
The reason taxes are going up and spending is being cut is because we can't afford stuff because of Brexit!

Aside from the content of this chancellors budget, the whole pantomime of the House of Commons is increasingly hard to stomach.
Tradition is one thing, but what the fuck does the braying and jeering achieve - irrespective of where from, politically?
Stagnant, performative bollocks.

Unless it's purely transactional (equipment, medicines etc) profit and health care services shouldn't mix.
The government admits profiteering is rife in children’s care and social care, yet it still wants private finance back in the NHS. This is an ideology where a few will profit while everyone else pays.

Britain is one of the world’s richest countries. Why do a third of children live in poverty?
It is a political choice - years of austerity, real wage cuts, regressive taxation, unchecked profiteering, disappearance of social housing, hijacking of govts by corporations/rich.
