It’s beyond belief, the Housing Minister feigning ignorance about stamp duty law. What’s next, the Chancellor saying they weren’t told anything about tax law or the Prime Minister surprised to learn the budget affects spending? Seriously!

@thetrawl.bsky.social Seriously, Rayner sidestep a £40k stamp duty bill on herseaside front second home, while the government is contemplating CGT on primary home. That’s bad optic and worse politics. Nothing honorable there.

Finally, someone’s bringing a little reason to the Satsuma saga. After months of Trump’s tariffs turning the Market into a demolition derby slashing GDP, shrinking wages, and sending prices skyward maybe this is the reset button investors have been hoping for.

We’ve been shafted, this so-called “Economic Prosperity Deal.” It offers limited tariff relief on UK cars and steel but leaves many UK exports facing high U.S. tariffs. This deal falls short of a true free trade agreement and leaves much unresolved.
The macroeconomic impact of this US-UK trade deal is vanishingly small. But its political impact is mammoth: Trump succeeded in making Brexit irreversible, forcing Starmer to celebrate a deal that drives a gigantic wedge between the UK and the EU. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

@marina-purkiss.bsky.social Trump just called Mattel a country-guess Barbie and Hot Wheels have their own borders now! Who knew toy makers needed passports and tariffs? Next thing you know, Ken’s running for president of Doll-land! Toy diplomacy just hit a whole new level. 🇺🇸🧸🎲

Trump’s 100% tariff on foreign-made movies is pure box office madness! Films are a global hit, not a tariff target. This script needs rewriting before Hollywood faces a sequel called “Import Impossible: The 100% Protocol”

Trump promised to end the war in Ukraine “in 24 hours,” saying, “I absolutely can.” It’s been 100 days, and peace is nowhere in sight. Maybe his Nobel Peace Prize hopes are stuck behind that “very easy negotiation” he said he couldn’t reveal-or maybe it was just wishful thinking.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Sunday that the Trump administration will decide this week whether to continue pursuing a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine or turn its attention to other matters.

Tax hikes served hot for the working class, while the rich get a generous side of exemptions. Bon appétit, fairness! 🍽️💸 So much for ‘leveling the playing field’ looks like the only thing rising here is the tax bill for us regular folks.
