Scottish Labour MPs who were recently readmitted to the Party for voting against the two-child cap last year will be pleased to see it lifted, and the Barnet consequentials for Scotland must be passed on in full.

i'm really curious about the threshold like that's £166/month, surely saving £167/month for your retirement isn't some unbelievable extravagance that must be cracked down on?
Do they really think we're stupid? What government is going to introduce such a tax mere months before the next election?

removing the two child cap cost two "gen z not having widespread cirrhosis"
From now on, when discussing the budget, please use “is this measure bigger than the cost to the exchequer of gen Z drinking less” as your metric for assessing whether something actually raises or costs a significant sum

i've never even heard of persimmon pie and now i feel the intense need to make one wtf
the list of best pies, and this is not debatable, goes:

1. key lime
2. lemon meringue
3. cherry
4. pumpkin
5. persimmon

people who disagree deserve to be interned for the rest of their natural lives in an underground prison camp

lifting the two child benefit cap would only cost about as much as they're spending on keeping fuel duty down btw
When can you declare an emergency over?

The 5p “emergency” petrol tax cut was introduced in March 2022, to offset a spike in prices

They are now about 30p down on that month, & about 50p down on the absolute peak

ok but genuinely i hate this milkshake tax business because you *know* it's just going to result in an occasional wee treat being replaced with some vile concoction of stevia and aspartame just like you can't get proper irn bru anymore
The removal of full-fat Irn Bru was genuinely the biggest violation of inalienable Scottish rights by a Government in London since the Edward I sacked Berwick
on the sugar tax my beliefs are genuinely libertarian in the commonly understood sense: i dont believe in such a profound infringement of my rights just because of 'public health concerns'

is this... true? because canadian supermarkets are wildly better than uk ones in my experience unless you're talking about a big waitrose in a well-off bit or a newer m&s foodhall
on the other hand UK supermarkets are *so much* better than US ones at this point. Just night and day in terms of quality, range, accessibility, and price.

Notable there's not a single anti-trans "women's rights" organisation involved in the new campaign to end the criminalisation of abortion in Scotland.

But there are LGBTQ+ orgs.

It's almost as if one actually cares about women's rights and the other is just a hate campaign.

All the signs are in the same font, same spacing and on the same cardboard type. Totes a grassroots protest drawing on actual local concerns there then.
