🚨 #SpringStatement 2025: Austerity 2.0 unleashed - our NHS & health will suffer 🚨

Today’s budget confirms the government is making a dangerous political & economic miscalculation. Rather than taxing the super-rich, they’re targeting society’s most vulnerable.

Scrap austerity – tax the super-rich instead

Britain can’t rebuild with more cuts – a wealth tax on the richest is the fair alternative to funding public services and growth

If you don’t want history to be re-written please share this video widely - because the only way to stop that happening is to constantly call this boll**** out with the actual facts
If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it

We cannot allow them to rewrite history.

If you agree share this FACT CHECK widely

“Obviously there will be no return to freedom of movement, the customs union or the single market” says Keir Starmer at #PMQs today

In other news the OBR report the Gov’t keeps quoting from says Brexit is on course to cut UK trade by a staggering 15%
In a significant Intervention Bank of England governor said this week that Brexit has undermined the UK economy. @skynews.com.web.brid.gy didn’t think that was important enough to raise with the Government Minister this morning. I disagree. If you do too share this report
